The Mountains of Tibet

Reach for this book when your child begins asking big, metaphysical questions about where we go after we die or expresses a deep curiosity about the vastness of the universe. It provides a gentle, circular perspective on existence that emphasizes personal choice and the beauty of being born into a loving family. The story follows a Tibetan woodcutter who, after passing away, is offered the chance to live any life he chooses across all of space and time. Rather than focusing on the sadness of loss, the book celebrates the wonder of the world and the joy of beginning a new journey. It is a peaceful, beautifully illustrated guide for children ages 4 to 9 who are processing the concept of the life cycle or seeking comfort in the idea of eternal connection.
