Book Reviews of Zen Shorts (Caldecott Honor Book)Book Review: WONDERFUL!!! Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this book through the scholastic book orders at school. I never imagined this would be my most favorite book of all. I Love it! My kids think it is cute but I love the stories. I would rate this higher if I could. If you are thinking of purchasing this book you will not be sorry !! I don't write many reviews but I just had to find and rate this wonderful childrens book.
Book Review: A real gem Summary: 5 Stars
There is something about the quiet way in which this book unfolds that is appealing to adults and, apparently, to young children as well -- my four-year-old leafs through the pages on his own every day since the day I bought it, and sleeps with it, too. There is gentle wisdom here that is sure to foster thoughtful discussion about how we should treat ourselves and others.
Book Review: entertaining book on life lessons Summary: 5 Stars
Stillwater the Panda makes an appearance in Addy, Michael and Karl's back yard chasing a flying umbrella before it became a nuiscence. and that is how the all met. they take turns spending time with Stillwater and he tells them each a story. The stories are profound and might need to be explained to younger readers, but yes, they should still hear this book.
Book Review: One of my favorites! Summary: 5 Stars
This book has all the best qualities of children's books: Children like to hear it, parents like to read it, and both can discuss it afterwards. Very positive, useful life lessons packaged effectively and attractively for the grade school and younger crowd. And who couldn't fall in love with big, soft-looking Stillwater and his "slight panda accent"?
Book Review: Gentle way to raise issues w/ kids Summary: 5 Stars
I like to treat my kids with respect and gentleness. Books that help me are a treasure. Jon Muth is a regular source of those kinds of books. Zen Shorts is not overdone or watered down. It is simple and beautiful and useful. It makes great literature more accessible to young folks. It helps parents and kids trying to live a more mindful or aware life.
