Cain and Abel: Finding the Fruits of Peace

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Joani Keller Rothenberg. This Cain and Abel story strives for impartiality, mitigating Cain's act yet grieving Abel's death, and concludes somewhat simplistically that "when each person learns to reach out an open hand without the rock, without the sword, without the gun, the entire world can be saved." Vivid, rich illustrations with high-voltage rainbow hues envision a fruitful prelapsarian land as described in a thematic Midrash passage.
