It is the story of Lyndsay Porter, age 12, who decides to end all warfare to protect the life of her neighbor, skateboarding teacher, and (secret) crush, Michael Pope, who has enlisted in the Marines.
With the help of her friends, she starts a campaign imploring adults to sign an Oath renouncing war. Until all adults sign the “Oath to Choose Peace” the children will withhold all signs of affection and joy from their parents and grandparents. Through the savvy use of tech, the kids are able to reach every corner of the country and beyond.
