"Do you think it's even possible?" asked Ming. "Do you think the world could stop fighting, even for just One Day?"

"Has it ever happened before?" asked Jamal. "Does anybody even know?"

"I've read a lot of history books," said Cheyenne, "and all of them seem to be about war -- about one country conquering another country, or one group of people hurting another group."

"Yes, and it doesn't seem to matter what the reasons were," added Indira, who was, like the other children, wise beyond her years.

"Well, what can we do about it?" asked Juan.

"We're just kids. Who will listen to us? The adults always act like they know everything," Solomon said.

"But when was the last time a kid started a war?" Jamal asked.

"You're right," said Cheyenne, "there's nothing in history about a kid starting a war."

"If that's true," Michiko replied, "then maybe kids can get together to bring World Peace! Then people could work together to make life more fair for everyone."
