Thich Nhat Hanh explains the core concepts of Buddhism for kids in this adorably illustrated story book about a young boy who discovers the Buddha lives in each one of us. Also includes a parent-friendly resources section containing meditation and mindfulness exercises for kids! Minh loves going to the temple with his parents. Everyone is nice to him there as they go about their daily work. But his favorite part of the temple is the Buddha statue. He is very impressed by all the bananas, mangoes, and other fruits that people leave for the Buddha. He imagines that the Buddha must really like all those fruits! To Minh, the Buddha statue is the Buddha. As Minh grows up, he realizes that the Buddha statue isn’t actually the Buddha. But if the statue isn’t the Buddha, then what is? So, where is the Buddha? With his characteristic insight, sincerity, and sense of humor, Thich Nhat Hanh guides readers ages 4-8 through a charming tale of discovery, beginning in India with the historical Buddha, Siddhartha, and then on to Vietnam with Minh and his quest. A beautifully illustrated introduction to Buddhism for kids, Where Is the Buddha? also includes a resources section for parents looking to practice breathing exercises and meditations with their little ones.

Great even for Kindergardener
My son is in kindergarden and he enjoys reading this book. The drawings are very beautiful and the story is very cute. My son has asked me the same question where is Buddha. And, this book does a good job explaining it a way that he can understand. highly recommended for young kids.

Disappointed. Expected a much more engaging story.
This book did not feel like it was written with a child in mind. We were bored.
