Stillwater

I want to recommend a book: Zen Shorts by Jon J Muth.

Stillwater is a giant Zen panda. He moves into a neighborhood and when the children come to visit, he tells them wonderful Zen stories that help them see their way through the world. I believe there are about 4 stories. The book may be read in its entirety or one short story at a time. They are stories about forgiveness, being present and releasing the past. Lovely and gentle and perfect for children and adults.

You will find Stillwater in the children's section of the bookstore but don't be fooled. You will enjoy him and learn from him too. A perfect gift for a child or for a whole family. Enjoy ~ with blessings
