Description
Age range 4 to 8 Lyrical text and luminous illustrations tell the story of Prince Siddhartha-from his time as a boy in the palace, to journeying in the world where he sees pain and suffering, to his meditation and enlightenment. A beautifully illustrated picture book about how Prince Siddhartha grows up to become the Buddha that teaches children (and the adults reading to them) about empathy, kindness, and finding peace in our lives.
