This book combines good illustrations with good stories that are meaningful and deep. I have read many books to my children, but I have enjoyed this one the most of all. I only hope that the stories and their meanings sink in and are of guidance to my children (and myself) in our daily lives.

This is a delightful reading not only for young readers but for adults unfamiliar with the teachings that are provided. It can be a catalyst for further discussions and I encourage using the stories to launch "what if" or "how would you?" dialogues.
