The Oxherd Boy

Sometimes you can only do a small, small thing. And that can make all the difference.

In these exquisitely illustrated parables grounded in the three pillars of Chinese philosophy, a young boy, his family ox, and a rabbit living in his garden help each other navigate the daily work of love, compassion, and community. Examining the world through the lenses of Taoism, Buddhism, and Confucianism, their conversations convey tender, uplifting messages for life's various crossroads.
