Book Reviews of Zen Ties
Book Review: Wonderful!
Summary: 5 Stars
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.Book Review: Such a beautifully illustrated and thoughtful book
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is so beautifully illustrated - much like the previous book Zen Shorts. It is also beautifully written. This is one of my favorite books to read to my 4 and a half year old son before bed. It makes everyone tranquil and think about how to be kind to one another and understand the good in everyone. Stillwater is such a kind and gentle teacher - a creature for all to aspire to be like.Book Review: Yet another terrific book by Jon Muth
Summary: 5 Stars
We are huge fans of The Three Questions and Zen Shorts, so snapped this one up upon publication and are not disappointed. Lovely, lovely illustrations that visually celebrate the community that the story endorses. Stillwater, like some sort of modern-day Nana (the dog nanny in Peter Pan), teaches his human companions how simple acts help us overcome our fears. And Koo is a hilarious addition.Book Review: Zen Children
Summary: 5 Stars
I first fell in love with Jon J. Muth's painting,but these stories are amazing. If you wnat your children to hear wonderful stories of peace and awesome life lessons, get all of his books. We have been reading these to my son since we brought him home and he just loves the pictures. Muth has a gift for teaching Zen to children. Buy these books!!!Book Review: A lot short of Zen Shorts
Summary: 3 Stars
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.
