Dan Bunyard, Michael Joseph’s nonfiction publishing director, said that he “was instantly keen” and that the book’s “messages about self-belief, self-value, individual freedom and social connection” immediately chime with people. The book is divided into 5 chapters, by the way: Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter and Spring again (the illustrations above show one for each season). For almost two years, he spoke to callers to the Samaritans about everything from their depression to thoughts of suicide. “That’s one of the reasons I started doing the drawings. That’s perhaps why my pictures connect with people. I understand sadness.” Our servers are getting hit pretty hard right now. To continue shopping, enter the characters as they are shown diviso in capitoloni che portano il nome delle stagioni e, mentre ho trovato meno interessanti Primavera ed Estate, mi sono innamorata di Autunno e Inverno.

While the drawings have the charm of Winnie-the-Pooh, the captions have the depth of ancient proverbs: “‘What if I meet people who don’t like me or the things I do?’ asked Tiny Dragon. ‘You must walk your own path,’ said Big Panda. ‘Better to lose them than lose yourself.’” A guiding light in the darker months, Big Panda and Tiny Dragon is the beautifully illustrated and mindful journey of two friends through the seasons, inspired by Buddhist philosophy Full of the Buddhist thoughts and teachings that helped the author/illustrator overcome some of his own darkest times, and presented in an engaging, illustrated format with two characters you can’t help but grow to care for, this is a book that will leave you feeling a little bit better about the world, and yourself, than you did before you read it.

This is the uplifting, beautifully illustrated story of two beloved friends as they journey through the seasons of the year together, into the wild, exploring the thoughts and emotions, hardships and happiness that connect us all. By dipping into this little book of simple Zen Buddhist sayings, you can calm your anxiety and return serenity to your soul.

Friends Big Panda and Tiny Dragon journey through the seasons of the year together, day and night, in rain and in sun. Travelling through nature, they find hope and inspiration in the world around them, realising that even in the darkest of days, Spring will always return. Pause, find connection, and choose peace rather than harm when you feel overwhelmed in the crashing ocean of life. Norburry προτρέπει τον αναγνώστη να ζήσει τη στιγμή, ή αλλιώς να μην ξεχνάει να ζει προσπαθώντας να καταφέρει να τα βγάλει πέρα με τη ζωή την ίδια, αλλά και να μην καταβάλλεται από την αβεβαιότητα που περιβάλλεται σε κάθε πτυχή της ζωής του. Big Panda and Tiny Dragon will be published in the UK by Penguin Michael Joseph on 16 September. It features two friends, who often find themselves lost, but discover beautiful sights that they never would have found if they had gone the right way. Together, they overcome life’s obstacles. James Norbury, pisac i likovni umjetnik je na vrlo jednostavan, lijep, interesantan, kreativan i slikovit način uspio prikazati vrlo složene, tužne, teške, u biti životne situacije koje uz njega sagledavamo s osmijehom na licu. Misli su to koje su njemu pomogle tijekom najtežeg razdoblja života gdje svakako pomažu ilustracije, koje su stvarno lijepo nježne, jednostavnih, ali jako dojmljivih crteža.

James has a way to speak to your soul. This book is nothing short of comforting and heartwarming' VEX KING Knjiga je ovo koju ću rado poklanjati, prvo sebi (ovaj primjerak iz bibliobusa Gradske knjižnice Rijeka mi je „slučajno“ uletio), a onda i dragim ljudima jer nije potrebno puno vremana za uživati u njoj. Otvoriti jednu stranicu dnevno, bit će sasvim dovoljno za uljepšati si dan, potaknuti se, sagledati situacije na drugačiji način, usporiti i uživati u životu.And yes, I got a signed special edition as you can see. Couldn't resist. Especially since it helps a relatively unknown artist with great talent. And on their journey through the ever-changing seasons, join these two friends as they learn how to live in the moment, be at peace with uncertainty, and find the strength to overcome life's obstacles, together.
