Title: Buddhism and kids
Post by: Angela on November 04, 2009, 04:33:35 AM

Ellen, or anyone ...
My son (he's 11 yrs. old now) has been researching Buddhism. One of his friends in Boy Scouts introduced him to it. Funny how influential 'peers' are. We have boat loads of information, books laying around the house and he never picked it up ;)

Anyway ... he asked, so I gave him my Worlds's Religions book and he's also been poking around the internet. Kids Love reading online ... must be their generation. So I was wondering if anyone could suggest some online books or articles that would be appropriate for an 11 year old ... of course going on 21 ;) He's very precocious.

Thanks,
Ang
