Produktbeschreibung
The first-ever biography of visionary peace activist Thich Nhat Hanh (Thay) illustrates his remarkable life and inspirational teachings specifically for children ages 5-9 Thich Nhat Hanh, the revered world spiritual leader nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize by Martin Luther King Jr. and called "the father of mindfulness" by TIME Magazine, lived a fascinating life. Born in Vietnam, his 95-year path of transformation included political exile and spanned multiple continents.  After a long life of dedicated activism, Thich Nhat Hanh became known for how the insight he had when he was just a little boy changed the world—if you pay attention, he realized, everything you see is special. In the pages of this book, learn why it's worthwhile to savor a sweet treat, the secret weapon for strength you carry everywhere you go (hint: kids do it 20-30 times per minute!), and how horrible challenges like living through a war can make you a kinder, wiser person.  Moving stories from award-winning author Minh Lê (Drawn Together, Let Me Finish) and warm watercolors from Cátia Chien will captivate children and parents alike along this journey through the years with the irreplaceable Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh.  As they say in Plum Village, the monastery in Southwest France founded by Thich Nhat Hanh in 1982 that has grown to become the largest Buddhist monastery in the West: "A lotus for you, a Buddha to be."
