Very Different! Probably better suited for adults.

The art is wonderful, I guessed it was a story suited to my daughters age (4). The book looks really beautiful! It is a large book with fancy writing and cute bunny-like characters. After reading it to my daughter, who quickly pushed it away, I wasn't sure which of us was more confused!! I wanted to know what this book was about! I read the inside flap, and then my friend and I spent a considerable amount of time re-reading and talking out what it meant, line by line. To us, it was actually about distractions in our lives, not appreciating the good times if there were no bad times, frienships, alone time, meditation, truth, etc.. It's a great adult conversation piece. However, the words probably are NOT meaningful for ages BELOW 13, and the cute art probably is not attractive for ages ABOVE 8 (excluding adults!)
