Maybe

Ages 6 to 10

A mindfulness fable for young readers with stunning art and spare text that evokes ancient wisdom with today's tools for seeing the bright side of changes in life

When a farmer's horse runs away, his neighbors call it the worst of news. "Maybe," says the wise farmer, in what will become the book's refrain as more unexpected events come his way. This delightful tale teaches that what seems bad might be good; what seems good might be bad; and in the end, all are essential, helpful experiences in our personal journeys of growth. Filled with dreamy woodblock prints and vintage illustrations, Maybe is a breathtaking invitation to remember that mindful, nonjudgment of life's highs and lows is a surer path to peace and wellbeing. When a farmer's horse runs away, his neighbors call it the worst of news.
