The Legend of Lao Tzu and the Tao Te Ching
The Legend of Lao Tzu and the Tao Te Ching
by Demi
Margaret K. McElderry Books, New York, New York © 2007 42 pp.
This is surely adult reading disguised as a children's picture book. It is an exquisitely turned-out volume. Demi's small, delicate, porcelain-like figures, surrounded by acres of space, make a perfect visual vehicle for the Tao. After Demi relates some of the legends concerning Lao Tzu, she presents 20 of the 81 passages of the Tao Te Ching, each with accompanying illustration. In this brief volume, there is a wealth of spiritual teaching. You will want to take it home, sit with it, and be graced.
