Full color.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>Who was the Buddha?</b> <p/>Once upon a time in ancient India, a prince was born. His name was Siddhartha, and one day he would inherit a powerful kingdom. His father tried to protect him from the suffering and hardship beyond the palace walls, but just like children everywhere, the prince longed to see the world. <p/><i>Under the Bodhi Tree</i> is the story of a boy and his journey for understanding that eventually led him to the path of peace. Told in lyrical language, this excellent introduction to the story of the Buddha is beautifully illustrated and perfect for children who are curious about the real people who made history.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>Independent Publisher Book Award 2020: BRONZE AWARD for CHILDREN'S PICTURE BOOKS (ALL AGES)</b><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Deborah Hopkinson</b><br><b>Deborah Hopkinson </b>has a master's degree in Asian Studies from the University of Hawai?i at Manoa, where she studied the role of women in 13th-century Japanese Buddhism.
