Summary: one saying a day, beautifully set with pictures and photos
Review: This gorgeous little book may look like a coffee table book because it is so beautiful and so fun to sit and thumb through, but the sayings are Zen and they are deep. The author chose a very interesting assortment of aphorisms and quotes but it is the pictures that make this book so fun.

Summary: Fun Zen
Review: This is a beautifully written and illustrated book. The art is truely inspiring. This book, which I read straight through; is meant to be read as a daily reader. Every month starts with an event in a famous zen story about a boy whose pet bull escapes into the forest. As you read the story you will find parallels to your own life. In this daily reader, you will find daily quotations from which you will draw wisdom from. This book will not just sit on your shelf.
