The Mountains of Tibet: A Book Review

May 6, 2008

Written by Mordicai Gerstein, this piece tells of a man who is offered all the choices of the universe, yet learns to appreciate the simple beauty of his own life.

The illustrations are softly yet strikingly done, making for an absolutely precious piece of children’s literature. Written from the perspective of Tibetan spirituality, yet perfectly suitable for the multicultural classroom interested in exploring this majestic mountain kingdom.
