Sinopse

An important book for readers of all ages, Irvine Press brings quality biographies for kids through engagingly written volumes of true-to-life stories of important figures in history. 

Our message is simple: Dream Big, We'll Show You How.

Two young teenage boys from the Dominican Republic thought they had it all laid out. Gabriel had always wanted to go to the US and live a comfortable life with his family, away from all the poverty he’s been accustomed to his whole life. Rafael, on the other hand, had always dreamed of becoming the next big rapper like his idols. So when the opportunity to achieve their dreams came, they grabbed it right away. It was a simple plan. They would travel with Mr. Chavez, a man who introduced himself as Rafael’s uncle, to Miami. However, they soon realized that he wasn’t who he said he was and they weren’t going to Miami. Instead, they were bound to Mexico to cross the border through a cargo truck. Seizing an opportunity to escape at the border check, they ran as fast as they could. But there was one more obstacle in their journey to achieving the American dream: the vast and treacherous Chihuahuan desert. It is known to be a dangerous path for those who choose to cross it. With the scorching heat and predators on their heels, they must do what they can to survive. Will they be able to escape and cross the border safely??

Among these biographies, readers will find exceptional and notable men and women across varying disciplines to instill a sense of purpose and goal oriented living from an early age. Discover how each life was shaped and transformed through passion, determination, grit.

    This is an audiobook of Bodhi Leaves No. 9 by Dr. Helmuth Klar, 'How to Teach Buddhism to Children' found in the Pariyatti Edition of Collected Bodhi Leaves Vol. I, narrated by Christa Michel.
     
    Excerpt:
     
    "...How can Buddhist parents best teach their own children Buddhism? since they will seldom have the opportunity to teach it to other children, let alone the children of non-Buddhist parents. As I do not wish to theorize, I shall speak only from practical experience with my own children, and so of Western children in general. It is moreover particularly the Western child which is exposed to a Christian or materialistic environment, and hence is in need of a carefully considered Buddhist education. In a Buddhist country, steeped in its centuries-old Buddhist tradition, the position of a Buddhist child is (or should be) far easier. In such a favourable environment a good and effective Buddhist educational system may have developed. But even if it had it would be a great mistake for us, as Westerners, to copy it without due consideration.
