In
Is Nothing Something?
Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh answers heartfelt, difficult, and funny
questions from children of all ages. Illustrated with original
full-color artwork by Jessica McClure,
Is Nothing Something?
will help adults plant the seeds of mindfulness in the young children
in their lives. Beginning with the most basic questions, "What is
important in life?" and "Why is my brother mean to me?" and progressing
through issues that we all wrestle with, such as "How do I know if I
really love somebody?", "How long am I going to live?", and "What does
God look like?", each page presents a question with a short answer from
Thich Nhat Hanh, appropriate for beginning readers to work with on their
own. The back of the book has the first complete children’s biography
of Thich Nhat Hanh, along with basic, kid-friendly instructions for
mindful breathing and mindful walking. Both humorous and profound,
Is Nothing Something? is the perfect resource for kids with questions, adults looking to answer them, and anyone with questions of their own.
