The War by Anais Vaugelade

This is a seemingly simple picture book with a big message.  It includes a long-standing war with a long-forgotten beginning, an accidental death, and a prince who does not want to fight.  How the prince solves his problem and manages to bring the two warring kingdoms together is the crux of the story.  This would be a great discussion starter and would be excellent paired with the classic The Butter Battle by Dr. Seuss.
