Zen Ties

Summer fading
new friends' faces
lighten the way home.

Summer has arrived — and so has Koo, Stillwater the Panda's haiku-speaking young nephew. When Stillwater encourages Koo and their friends Addy, Michael, and Karl to help a grouchy neighbor in need, their efforts are rewarded in unexpected ways.

Jon J. Muth's warm, engaging story and his luminous watercolors are as fresh and magical as a summer breeze. Readers of all ages will be disarmed by this tale of compassion and friendship that reaffirms the importance of our ties to one another.

Se estompeaza vara fetele noilor prieteni lumineaza drumul spre casa. Vara a sosit - la fel si Koo, Stillwater, nepotul tanar vorbitor de haiku.
