A gentle first Bhagavad Gita for little hearts - ages 3 to 6. Long, long ago in India, there lived two best friends. One was Krishna. One was Arjun. When brave Prince Arjun stands on the wide field of Kurukshetra, his hands begin to shake and his bow slips from his fingers. He doesn't know what to do. So his best friend Krishna turns around, listens, and shares seven little lessons that children have loved for thousands of years: Ask someone wise when you don't know what to doDo your job with love - everyone has a special job (your dharma )Try your best, and don't worry about the prizeYour little light inside never goes outStay steady on happy days and hard daysBe kind to everyone - God lives in every heartYou are never aloneKrishna and Arjun: A Little Gita for Little Hearts retells the heart of the Bhagavad Gita in simple words a preschooler can follow, with bright, cheerful, full-color illustrations on every page.
