"Brilliant jewel tones and enchanting artwork show Guan Yin as she guides and comforts children all over the world."
— Foreword Review
What do children do when they are afraid of monsters at night? Are face to face with creepy, crawly bugs? Have trouble with friends? Lose a loved one? Or make a mistake?
In this book, the gentle narrative encourages children to call on Guan Yin, the Buddha’s helper, in times of trouble. The text explains that Guan Yin is known by different names in China, Vietnam, Korea, Japan, India, and America and can appear in different forms to help, but she never tells you who she is.
Repetitive, soothing sentences and exquisite illustrations spark children’s imaginations to perceive the compassionate nature of Guan Yin, as well as their own innate potential to be calm, caring, and peaceful.
Guan Yin, The Buddha’s Helper, was inspired and created by a team of four--written by Bhikshuni Jin Rou
and Terri Nicholson, illustrated by Bhikshuni Heng Ching, and colored and designed by Amandine Dam,
bringing this extraordinary book to completion. Other books created by the team
are Snow-Covered
Peaks and Amitabha’s Happy Land.
"This is a beautiful book, both in appearance and sentiment,
and will be a lovely complement to world religion collections."
