The Golden Rule by Ilene Cooper is a multicultural and international book about The Golden Rule. The rule states, "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you," which can be found in all the world's religions and in every culture. It is a simple rule that is not always easy to follow. The book captures the importance and rewards of following this rule. The story is beautifully illustrated by paintings by Gabi Swiatlowska. This book would be good for nursery school children and elementary school children to teach them how to be kind to and respectful of one another. ( )

This a delightfully illustrated book about the Golden Rule of doing unto others as you would want them to do unto you. A grandfather goes about teaching his grandson how to treat others and about how all (many) religions have the same rule. The child thinks about what he could do do adapt the golden rule giving readers ideas along the way.

A boy and his grandfather see a sign that reads 'DO UNTO OTHERS AS YOULD HAVE THEM DO UNTO YOU,' and the boy asks his grandfather what this means. The grandfather explains how many different religions preach this rule and that it's one that everyone ought to follow. He helps the boy to understand how he can practice this rule and how the world could be a better place if we all practiced it.
