Product Description

Synopsis
Sarah Conover's collection of traditional Buddhist tales leads us to the kind of implicit understanding of ourselves and others that only stories can provide. Following the Buddha through his various transformations, these clarified and often humorous narrative journeys open the ancient master's profound and gentle teachings to persons of all ages, religions, races, and ideological persuasions. Over and over, this marvelous book tells us, "Let go of your anger, your fear, your greedy desire. Embrace gladness. Follow the path." The stories form a wondrous pageant of elephants, monkeys, monks, and men working through foolishness toward wisdom and delight. Sara Conover teaches high school language arts in Spokane, Washington. She has produced numerous award-winning documentaries for PBS, the Discovery Channel, and the United Nations.

5.0 out of 5 stars Marvellous stories for parents and children, 22 April 2009
By P. Doedens (London, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I was looking for a book to read to my son, that contained the basics of Buddhism but wasn't difficult, dogmatic, stuffy....you know the thing. This little book has a lot of classist Buddhist stories beautifully retold, short reads that can (and do) lead to great discussions and more than once bring tears to my eyes. My (thoughtful, reflective) seven-year old gets the gists well though it might be better suited for children a bit older...will depend on the child I think. Not many pictures.
