When Anik tells Scarlet about the war in his home far away and of all the things he has lost, Scarlet is determined to make a difference. And so she decides to declare peace on Cameron's Creek, and maybe even the world...

Thoughtful and compelling, another excellent book in the series.

Each time I pick up a Kingdom of Silk book I am completely in awe of the elegant writing, the beautiful characterisation, the hope and love that shine through the simple stories. They are simple stories. They deal with hard things death of a child, fostering, adoption, war and peace, but in such a gentle yet honest way that these books are wonderful ways to address this type of topic with children. And yet they are above all else, stories of wonder and childhood, dreams and family, and they are utterly wonderful examples of that too.
