Rating: - Brilliant and Beautiful
This book has a story that draws my 3 year old in, is wonderful to look at and hold.
Rating:  - A lot short of Zen Shorts
I am a big fan of Jon Muth, both of his art and his Zen based stories. The Three Questions and Zen Shorts were great. They make you think, feel, understand, and love. Zen Ties is nice, but that is all. It seems like Muth wrote it in a hurry and didn't put much into it. It was a big disappointment to me.
Rating: - Wonderful!
This is a wonderful book. I have a 5 and a 3 year old and they ask for this book every night. There is not an awful lot of action, befitting a Zen Panda, but the kids love it. And it is a book with unquestionably positive themes. The illustrations are really lovely, as well. I am glad my kids like the book because I like reading it, too. I also recommend Zen Shorts and Stone Soup by the same author.
Rating: - Another Great Jon Muth Book
I bought this after receiving Zen Shorts. Jon Muth leaves the reader with a sense of calm. Great lessons for children of all ages.
