A story that is enjoyed by both adults and children! Often described by readers as "Like a Dr. Seuss story with timely, important messages for adults and children." It has zany, colorful illustrations on every page.
In my imaginary travels searching for a planet at peace, I found the planet Gazimbo! The intriguing storyline and fascinating illustrations keep the reader turning the pages to see what is next! The :"Gazimbans" had a peaceful existence together until some got very greedy, then the others became very needy. This caused distrust and frustration that led to an arms race in preparation for a war! Soon, everyone was suffering from the huge, wasteful arms race and the decision to go to war was made. But something very strange happened just as they were on the brink of war!
The Gazimbans found the answer to restoring peaceful relations before it was too late. So they piled up their weapons in a great big pile and melted them down with a great big smile, vowing that there would never be war on their beautiful planet. They sent their story to earth with me as I returned in my spaceship, and wished us Peace on Earth!
