Book Reviews of Zen Shorts (Caldecott Honor Book)
Book Review: A review by a five year old
Summary: 5 Stars
My son Tyler says:
"This book is really great. From this book I learned about friendship and kindness, even though I'm already a kind boy. And I learned that good luck and bad luck are all mixed up. Please buy this book for your child. Bye."
Book Review: Beutiful Zen Moments
Summary: 5 Stars
Finally a children's book that not only entertains but also make the child (at least my son) raise questions and discuss. I picked up the book on a wimp from the return cart in the bookstore and I have enjoyed reading it with my son ever since. We are waiting anxiously for the next Zen book from Jon Muth.Book Review: Wounderful images, thoughtful text
Summary: 5 Stars
While this book clearly doesn't need any more positive postings, I'll add my 2 cents. It's just a wee bit on the long side for my 2-1/2 year old boy, but he loves it just as much as my 5yr old girl. The images are wonderful & the three "life lessons" are simple enough that kids get the point (with maybe just a bit of parent explaination, like was is a "robber"?). I must say that I learned from it to, reminding me to let things go, as one of the stories explains that it's not useful to hold onto anger. If you liked this book, you will like "The Three Questions"; similar theme in teaching what you don't learn in school.... I highly recommend this book! You simply can't go wrong -- for a girl or boy. And the other parents will think you are so clever for giving such a thoughtful book! ;)Book Review: A wonderful book!
Summary: 5 Stars
I fell in love with this book the first time I read it. It's beautiful, creative, and very sweet. At this point I think I understand it better than my 4 year old but I absolutely love the values it teaches and I enjoy reading it to him more than any other book. I hope one day he can appreciate it on all the levels I do.Book Review: One of our favorites!
Summary: 5 Stars
We adore this book and the lessons it teaches. It is a beautifully written, beautifully illustrated children's book that we also give as gifts all the time.
