I got a hard copy of this book from a store and I loved it. The empowerment it carries and the silent cry for gender and racial equality just awoke a new inspiration within me. The author’s advocacy stands out in such a harmless way. I would definitely read this book over and over again just to keep drawing inspiration from it even as I introduce it to my little girl. We honestly need more books like this that shape our children’s minds into integral beings.

If you are finding a little and cute story for your children then Quinton Douglass Crawford has written this marvellous book. This book is like a story based on character “Moochie” who has the ability to travel back and forth as she is fond of travelling. Through her character, a lesson has been given to the youngsters that war is not an option in any case rather our world should be a peaceful place to live. As she travels a lot so she also has the ability to read a number of languages. She even listens to songs giving a peaceful message because she doesn’t want her ears to have a sense of words where war and hatred is exposed. The book is really an exciting journey for the children and it teaches them how different languages have different words. So we can say that it is also an informative piece by the author and a source of inspiration not only for children only but also the parents who are looking for some productive material. It is enriched with good thoughts and it also provides educational information occupied with motivational and inspirational messages that can attract young minds with curiosity. Moochie as a character also exposes his concern for the materialistic world that has been blessed with all resources but still, it is not pure. This book is really magnificent and a perfect choice to be placed in children libraries. Moochie as a girl has been shown as a character that really suits to the developing women who have the same thinking that peace exists only there where they are respected. Peace is inevitable to be respected.

A Unique and Insightful Read
“Moochie the Soochie Visits the Peace People” is an excellent fun book for children, especially for girls of color.
I love its simplistic and visually captivating nature. Any child will find it easy and fun because of the simple words and colorful pictures to captivate their attention. More so, its simple lesson is “Peace.” It tells of a fantasy-story where Moochie, the protagonist, travels through history and the future to pursue peace. I think the adventures are a creative way to encode and teach a vital virtue to children.
The book uniquely features characters from different ethnicities and races, breaking away from the typical all-white characters in children’s history books. With this, children of color can relate by seeing characters that look like themselves in the story. It also features simple words from 14 different languages around the globe. The aspect is bound to insight cultural appreciation and motivate more interest to get your child reading!
Additionally, Moochie and other benevolent characters in the book are female. Mr. Crawford gives the female characters empowering representations elevating their position in society. In a world of patriarchal societies, dominated by white male supremacy, teaching the colored girl that they too can contribute to creating a better world/history has immeasurable value in molding confident women proud of their background.
I confidently endorse “Moochie the Soochie Visits the Peace People” as one of the most unique and insightful children’s book I have read so far. Every child needs this, trust me!
