I like the fact that the grandfather explained, while the term and wording of the Golden Rule may be Christian in nature – all major faiths around the world has the same rule, worded differently, but has the same meaning. The grandson's questions about the Golden Rule are filled with childlike innocence and wonderment by the answer. The premise of the book is rather simple – it's a heart to heart conversation between a grandfather and his grandson about the Golden Rule. Swiatkowska's illustrations are phenomenal and reminiscent of oil paintings. The conversation between grandfather and grandson about the Golden Rule is wonderful, down to earth, incredibly innocent, and amazingly poignant without being too preachy. The Golden Rule is a children's picture book written by Ilene Cooper and illustrated by Gabi Swiatkowska, which tells a story about a grandfather explaining to his grandson what the Golden Rule entails and answering all his questions about the rule.Ĭooper's text is rather straightforward and rather heart-warming.
