Bookroo's summary
Young prince Siddhartha has everything, yet happiness eludes him. Embarking on a quest, he encounters wise-folk, fierce tigers, and a pesky mouse. Can he find true contentment? Discover a timeless journey of mindfulness and awakening.
From the publisher
In this charming and accessible picture book, Ian Lendler and Xanthe Bouma offer a heart-warming account of the childhood of the Buddha. A spoiled young prince, Siddhartha got everything he ever asked for, until he asked for what couldn’t be given—happiness. Join Little Sid as he sets off on a journey of discovery and encounters mysterious wise-folk, terrifying tigers, and one very annoying mouse. With Lendler’s delightful prose and Bouma’s lyrical artwork, Little Sid weaves traditional Buddhist fables into a classic new tale of mindfulness, the meaning of life, and an awakening that is as profound today as it was 2,500 years ago.
