The Angry Monk and the Fly
Age range 3 to 6
This accessible picture book teaches the value of mindfulness.
Even monks get angry sometimes. That's when it's time to pause and reflect.
The monk is almost never angry, but when a pesky Buddha Fly comes buzzing happily by, zipping around his head, landing on his nose day after day, the monk becomes very angry indeed. This makes him confused and sad.
Until one day, he stops to look at this irritating, joyful fly. And then he sees something wonderful.
The Angry Monk and the Fly is a tale of pausing, teaching us the importance of taking the time to see life differently and of truly seeing all things, even when they annoy us or make us angry.
Children (and adults) will enjoy this brightly illustrated book, and will be left feeling calm and more ready to accept everyday trials.
