abstract note	True stories about the soul-stirring life and powerful actions of 'Abdu’l-Bahá come alive in our new book—'Abdu’l-Bahá: Serving Humanity. Did you know that 'Abdu’l-Bahá’s service to humanity includes playing jump-rope with kids and sharing sugar with a mouse? Or that as a youth, He galloped His horse ahead of everyone to snatch a few moments of rest—until His horse gave Him a little kick to wake Him up again? Can you imagine Him applauding a little girl who outraces all the boys on her pony? Or upending social conventions in Paris, a mountain town in Colorado, and His home in 'Akká, by insisting that all are welcome? You’ll find these stories and many more featured in our new book: 'Abdu’l-Bahá: Serving Humanity. Accomplished authors, writing in diverse styles, recount stories that draw the heart and inspire action as they portray 'Abdu’l-Bahá’s actions as a young adult and throughout His momentous travels in Europe and North America. In rich, glowing color and splendid detail, 29 artists bring the stories to life in this beautifully illustrated, hardcover book—a book to inspire children and families to use their power to change the world. In these stories, your children and their friends accompany 'Abdu’l-Bahá as He embraces humanity’s diverse peoples and personalities; upends racial prejudice and gender stereotypes; and puts into practice the love that melts opposition and builds a world of peace, justice, and joy. This gorgeous collection, crafted for reading aloud or independently, invites children to think about, talk about, and learn from the example of 'Abdu’l-Bahá. A perfect gift for your children and all their friends! All stories have been meticulously authenticated and are presented in historically and culturally accurate detail. Each story has been field-tested and refined with input from children and families. Loving All the World invites you into this intriguing, heart-warming, and humorous world of stories for all ages.
