(2) 4-6 Illustrated by Stefano Vitale. Walker's ceaseless rhythm echoes the inexorable march of war. Poignancy is sustained in gentle images until war flaunts its power. With a creative economy of words, Walker offers a challenge: Will war continue as humanity's legacy? From Vitale's palette come illustrations that show, through color and light, the striking contrast between peace and safety and the devastation of war.
