A welcome addition to your homes and a must for elementary school libraries
Atlanta GA: UNITED SIKHS has added ‘Journey with the Gurus’ in its recommendation list for Sikh Awareness Through Libraries (SATL) project and highly recommends adding it to your household and as a gift to your family and school libraries.
Journey with the Gurus, Volume One, is a children’s book based on the life and teachings of Guru Nanak. Each story is woven in an easy to understand language – that captures the imagination of young minds. The added features of this book are the discussion questions at the end of each chapter. These questions create shared learning and meaningful conversations. The aim of the book is to encourage dialogue between parents and children. Sixty beautiful original illustrations in rich, vibrant colors make the stories come to life. This hard-cover book has been esthetically designed and can be passed from generation to generations.
This book is fundamentally changing the way young children are associating with Guru Nanak. Because this book is dialogue oriented, it helps in transporting the children to the time and space of Guru Nanak. The children can feel Guru Nanak as a companion and as a friend. And that helps them absorb the ideals of the Sikh way of life in a non-preachy and logical way.
Journey with the Gurus has replaced the Disney’s bed time stories in many Sikh households. Children are asking their parents to read to them these awe-inspiring stories.
These stories are inspired by the Balam Sakhian of Bhai Vir Singh, and are retold by Inni Kaur who has been involved in educating Sikh children for decades.
It is a perfect family time activity by the fireplace or a perfect fit for the Sunday Gurmat school story-telling session.
This book makes an ideal gift for the children’s elementary school libraries on the occasion of Gur Purabs or Vaisakhi day.
