Summary: All children should get to read it
Comment: "I have read the "The Pumpkin Patch" and was thoroughly
warmed by the simplicity of it's message and the world
created by the wonderful illustrations to help us
experience the lessons within. All children should get to
read it and have the chance to experience their own
part in the whole of things."

Rating: 5
Summary: An Exquisite Book
Comment: This is a wonderful book, just the thing for curious and spiritually developed children and also, because it is so beautifully illustrated, an enchanting way for all children to learn from nature. Each page, with its vivid and beautifully executed illustration draws the viewer into the story which contains some valuable lessons in life and ends up by showing the interconnectedness of all things. I thoroughly recommend The Pumpkin Patch to all parents who either want to introduce children to meditation or to those who simply want their children to read a well-conceived and written and equisitely illustrated book.

Summary: A Magical Introduction to the Practice of Meditation
Comment: Don't be misled by the title- this is not a story about picking the perfect Halloween pumpkin! "The Pumpkin Patch" is a useful tool for parents, classroom teachers, and religious school educators who wish to introduce children to the practice of meditation. The story uses pumpkins in a pumpkin patch to beautifully show through clean writing and colorful illustrations how we are all interconnected.

Its message of peace, tolerance and unity makes this an especially important and timely contribution to the body of literature available to children.

Following the story is an excellent explanation of the "Way of the Buddha." This section of the book serves to teach children that amazing discoveries can be made when one takes the time to sit quietly.

This book nourishes the soul and promotes peace. (It is not just for Buddhists.)
