The Golden Rule
by Ilene Cooper
illustrated by Gabi Swiatowska
A boy and his grandfather see a billboard with these words written on it: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. When the boy asks about the meaning of the words, his grandfather tells him about the Golden Rule, and how it is interpreted by various religions (Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, & Shawnee Native American).
A beautifully designed book with a universal message that all readers will embrace.
