SUBJECT TO AVAILABILITY

The Buddha's Diamonds

By Carolyn Marsden About

A graceful portrait of a young Vietnamese boy’s literal and spiritual coming-of-age.

Every day, Tinh heads out to sea with his father to catch fish for their family and the market. When a fierce storm strikes, Tinh earns the task of securing the family vessel, but he panics and runs away. It will take courage and faith to salvage the precious bamboo boat, win back his father’s confidence, and return once more to the sea.

All of Thay Phap Niem’s royalties are donated to the Touching and Helping Programs in Vietnam (the Hungry Children Project).

Co written with Thay Phap Niem
