The Sweeper: A Buddhist Tale

The Sweeper: A Buddhist Tale

A beautifully illustrated picture book that tells the classic Buddhist tale of a young servant girl's profound and life-changing encounter with the Buddha--for children ages 5-10.

Inspired by Buddhist tradition, this original story tells how Padme, a young servant girl, meets the Buddha as she is sweeping her masterâ€™s house. When she laments that she is so busy that she would never have time to meditate, the Buddha gives her the instruction to â€œsweep and clean.â€ This simple mindfulness practice transforms Padmeâ€™s life, and when she encounters the Buddha many years later, he teaches her how to send compassion out to others. This beautifully illustrated picture book is a wonderful way to introduce children to the power of mindfulness meditation practice.
