The Great Silent Grandmother Gathering, Sharon Mehdi’s inspirational story of two grandmothers standing silently in the local park as their way to help “save the world,” has become a global phenomenon, galvanizing its many readers over its hopeful message of small actions that can make the world a better place.

It is “a little story about peace for anyone who thinks she can’t save the world,” says Mehdi. Written as a gift to her newborn granddaughter, she never expected it to be embraced so warmly in her Oregon town. Sharing the story with friends, she discovered each one found it so powerful and moving that they, in turn, wanted to share it — with the world.

Without fail, each person who has had the chance to read The Great Silent Grandmother Gathering has been touched by its simple message of hope. An evocative demonstration of how changing the world can start with the smallest action, The Great Silent Grandmother Gathering is the perfect gift for mothers, grandmothers, and anyone who hopes we can one day achieve world peace.
