A tender, lyrical celebration of peace in all its forms, this keepsake children's book introduces the concept of peace in a new and accessible way: through art

Pairing 35 famous artworks with charming, read-aloud text, My Art Book of Peace illustrates the complex idea of peace through familiar scenarios, such as finding peace in the company of friends and making peace through kind gestures. The book's heartwarming words and colorful design invite children to connect their everyday experiences to those they see in the artworks - allowing them to truly engage with the book's theme, while building an appreciation of art.

My Art Book of Peace features a diverse array of vibrant paintings, drawings, and sculptures by famous artists ranging from Hilma af Klint and Franz Marc to Joy Labinjo and Noah Davis. With each expertly curated image accompanied by the work's title and artist's name, this book is sure to become the foundation of a child's art book collection.

Featuring sturdy pages and an eye-catching, stylish cover with holographic foil, t his luxurious-feeling board book is a beautiful gift for babies, toddlers, and young children, as well as new and expecting parents. It is a stunning addition to Phaidon's bestselling My Art Books series of beautiful board books, which explore big feelings through famous artworks and were selected as one of Oprah's Favorite Things in 2023.
