Meet award-winning children’s author Sanjay Nambiar and creator of the Mom’s Choice Award Winners, "Still There? (A Little Zen for Little Ones)" and "Remember the Stars (A Little Zen for Little Ones)".
Based on an ancient and beloved Zen fable, “Still There” is about a wise boy who helps a girl who isn’t very nice to him. But while his friend becomes upset about the situation, the wise boy simply lets it go and moves on to playing again. The story captures many beautiful Zen concepts – being in the present moment, doing something nice without expecting anything in return, letting go of an unpleasant experience, and not lingering on negative thoughts.
"Remember the Stars (A Little Zen for Little Ones)" is about a wise boy who receives a lot of love – and worry – from his parents. They worry about his health, his happiness, and everything else. Ultimately, the boy reframes how his parents relate to him, asking them to consider focusing on the present moment instead of worrying about the future. The message touches upon core Zen concepts of being present and not letting our worries disconnect us from what is truly important.
