In the rush of modern life, we tend to lose touch with the peace that is available in each moment. World-renowned Zen master, spiritual leader, and author Thich Nhat Hanh shows us how to make positive use of the very situations that usually pressure and antagonize us. For him a ringing telephone can be a signal to call us back to our true selves. Dirty dishes, red lights, and traffic jams are spiritual friends on the path to "mindfulness"--the process of keeping our consciousness alive to our present experience and reality. The most profound satisfactions, the deepest feelings of joy and completeness lie as close at hand as our next aware breath and the smile we can form right now. Lucidly and beautifully written, Peace Is Every Step contains commentaries and meditations, personal anecdotes and stories from Nhat Hanh's experiences as a peace activist, teacher, and community leader. It begins where the reader already is--in the kitchen, office, driving a car, walking a part--and shows how deep meditative presence is available now. Nhat Hanh provides exercises to increase our awareness of our own body and mind through conscious breathing, which can bring immediate joy and peace. Nhat Hanh also shows how to be aware of relationships with others and of the world around us, its beauty and also its pollution and injustices. The deceptively simple practices of Peace Is Every Step encourage the reader to work for peace in the world as he or she continues to work on sustaining inner peace by turning the "mindless" into the mindFUL.Binding Type: Paperback

Coming soon to a Banned Book list near you.
Format: Hardcover
A retelling of Animal Farm but for modern audiences. Instead of focusing on the dangers of communism, it instead focuses on the dangers of fascism. I would say it's very heavy-handed in its obvious critique of the MAGA crowd, but also frightfully accurate and does very well at evoking emotion from you, the reader, who probably also just like me, would be very frustrated watching everyone fall for the DJT-allegory bulldog and it's BS.
It's less "1984" and more "It Can't Happen Here" in it's warning about indifference and inaction in the face of growing danger from the autocracy crowd. It saddens me that this is a lesson that we have to keep learning, but I would say this book is probably one of the best ways of teaching that lesson at this point.

A well done graphic novel for children
Format: Hardcover
A graphic novel for middle and high schoolers that personifies animals vis-a-vis “Animal Farm”. The illustration is well done and the prose is easily understandable by children. An adult will probably be needed to explain the metaphors.

Modern Day Animal Farm
Format: Paperback
📚Animal Pound
✍🏻Tom King
Blurb:
When animals grow tired of being caged and abused, it’s only a matter of time before they have nothing to lose but their cages… When an uprising puts a pound in control of the animals, they make quick comrades, united against everything that walks on two legs. But with this newfound power comes a sudden challenge: how best to lay the groundwork for this new democracy as they write their first constitution. The conditions are ripe for a dictator, primed for instating a new system of brutality and death. When two groups of animals work together will their efforts be enough to prevent further animal authoritarianism?
Discover a timely graphic storytelling event from celebrated New York Times bestselling, Eisner Award-winning writer Tom King (The Human Target, Love Everlasting) and New York Times bestselling, Eisner Award-nominated artist Peter Gross (American Jesus, The Books of Magic), collaborating for the first time ever to bring this enduring Orwellian allegory to life for the 21st Century. Collects Animal Pound #1-5.
My Thoughts:
A retelling of Animal Farm but for modern audiences. Instead of focusing on the dangers of communism, it instead focuses on the dangers of fascism. I would say it's very heavy-handed in its obvious critique of the MAGA crowd, but also frightfully accurate and does very well at evoking emotion from you, the reader, who probably also just like me, would be very frustrated watching everyone fall for the the DJT-allegory.. This is the rare graphic novel meant to be given to non comics readers.
Thanks NetGalley, BOOM! Studios and Author Tom King for the advanced copy of "Animal Pound" I am leaving my voluntary review in appreciation.
