I could've sworn I wrote a review of this earlier... doesn't seem to be sitting in anywhere; maybe I jut described it in my group chat. Gorgeous illustrations, though the information is maybe more independent reader/almost middle grade level. A good introduction to the story and concepts of Buddhism. ( ) Beautiful illustrations alongside a touching yet kid-friendly retelling of Siddhartha's life and teachings. I love that this book included the Eight-fold Path. I read this curled up on my daughter's bed with my two-year-old falling asleep in my arms and the winter sun peeking in through the windows, which may also have influenced my impression of this book. This is the story of Buddha, starting with a prophecy that his mother had in a dream before he was born and ending with his death. The story is long and covers the Buddha's many years. The illustrations are very interesting and keep with the theme and time period. There is a lot to look at. This is a great book to introduce other religions and cultures. no reviews | add a review
