Reviews for The Feast That Stopped a War

"""Easy to grasp as a true folk tale, it is a parable emphasizing the importance for people of finding something they have in common, regardless of their origin or group they belong to. ...Overall, I can thoroughly recommend this book to any elementary level language learner as well as any EL teacher."" - Layla, ELT Teacher"
