Book Reviews of Zen Shorts (Caldecott Honor Book)
Book Review: If you buy only one children's book, buy this one
Summary: 5 Stars
My daughter just received this book for Christmas and we have all fallen instantly in love with it. The stunning watercolors alone justify getting this book, but the story is wonderful as well. It's everything a short story should be: funny, heartwarming, and makes you think.
We are going to give this to everyone we know with children.
Book Review: Wonderful. Buy this book!
Summary: 5 Stars
Moral philosophy for kids - and their parents. My three year old likes the stories as much as I do. The messages are delivered simply so that you take from them your own meaning to your degree of understanding. We try to read Zen Shorts in the mornings to remind us of more peaceful ways to approach the day. I really can't recommend this book enough.Book Review: Great children's book - beautiful and intriguing
Summary: 5 Stars
The watercolors are beautiful, but more amazing than that is the way the stories are told. Zen Shorts has really caught my kids. Even my youngest, (7 years) who is drawn to all things panda, is requesting the stories again and again because they make her wonder. There are some wonderful kid's books out there, but this is something special!Book Review: All Around Beautiful
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is all around Beautiful, from the watercolor pictures to the story content. Our 4yr old daughter doesn't have any problem understanding the ideas and stories within this story. Very refreshing and simple story. What a find this book is! Will have to research more work done by Jon J Muth and hope he puts out more like this.Book Review: Beautifully illustrated
Summary: 5 Stars
A beautiful illustrated book with three classic zen stories. I've heard these zen stories before, but to see them illustrated lovingly, making them more presentable to children, is really fantastic. The messages of these zen shorts are something kids know intuitively far better than adults; great book for your child and yourself.
