"Jeremy believed there should be a day dedicated to peace every year, a World Peace Day, and he made it happen. He traveled the globe, meeting with leaders such as Kofi Annan and His Holiness the Dalai Lama to get support for his idea. His enthusiasm and tireless efforts convinced the governments of the world to create a day of global cease-fire and nonviolence that falls on September 21 every year. More and more people participate each year, and Jeremy's story will make you think: What can I do for peace on September 21?"--BOOK JACKET.
