Seeing Thich Nhat Hanh in the Children's section of the library surprised me a little. I picked up The Hermit and the Well on a whim without previewing it at all. We read it tonight before bed. Amira & I both loved this book. She sat in a quiet stillness while we read - completely absorbed. At the end, she breathed in deeply and said: "Wow, Mama, that's a wonderful book!"

A boy and his friends want to find and learn from a wise hermit they've heard about. Instead the boy finds the Buddha within himself.
This could be a good book for Dharma School for demonstrating aspiration, and for demonstrating the natural wisdom we can find in ourselves, our buddha nature.
