With beautifully crafted words and exuberant watercolor illustrations, Random Kindness and Senseless Acts of Beauty offers a poetic and empowering message for world peace. Recognizing ?we are right on the edge of destroying ourselves,” this modern allegory inspires taking joyful steps to end violence. It expands upon the idea that ?we are all in the circle together,” and presents a timeless parable for readers of all ages. The Haiku-like text delivers a call to ?make a new earth grow beneath our feet.”

This twentieth-anniversary full-color edition, with a new foreword by Desmond Tutu, is dedicated to Fukushima recovery in the face of world climate crises. All royalties will be donated to community resiliency across boundaries and antinuclear advocacy.
