Product Description
For the first time ever, bestselling author Eckhart Tolle brings the core of his teachings to children, ages 7 to 100. Beautifully illustrated and artfully expressed, this charming story will bring joy to children and their parents for decades to come.
Milton, who is about eight years old, is experiencing bullying on the school playground at the hands of a boy named Carter.
Because he is being picked on, Milton no longer enjoys going to school. In fact, he dreads each morning because of his fear of Carter.
By discovering the difference between Then, When, and the Now, Milton is able to shed his fear of being bullied. Living in the Now, he no longer dreads encountering Carter—and this changes everything.
Milton's Secret will not only appeal to the millions of adult readers of Tolle's other books, but also to any parent who wants to introduce their children to the core of Tolle's teachings: Living in the Now is the quickest path to ending fear and suffering.

He was thinking about what happened--and what would happen when he ran into Carter next time...The more he thought about all of this, the more frightened he became. He thought about it so much that he became more and more scared until he completely forgot that he was in a warm bed in his little room." - From the book
In the new book Milton's Secret, bestselling author Eckhart Tolle brings his message of the liberating power of Now to young people. Co-authored with Robert S. Friedman, Milton's Secret uses the backdrop of school bullying, as well as a dog attack on a beloved pet cat, to weave a compelling story about a cheerful, bright boy named Milton who encounters these situations--and what happens when he becomes preoccupied with the possibility of harm on the schoolyard. Concerned the past and worrying about the future rob us of our peace and joy. Milton discovers that although his cat...Read more 22 of 23 people found the following review helpful: Milton's Secret - tell everyone!, By Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Milton's Secret: An Adventure of Discovery through Then, When, and the Power of Now (Hardcover) When I saw that the Power of Now had been moved to a picture, storybook format I bought it immediately - for myself. Let's be honest, simple is always best! WEll it is simply delightful. And I have decided to pass it along to a 10 year old girl for Christmas with the hope that it does not take her as long as it has me to realize that the Power of Now is within our reach, every single moment. The book encourages the reader (by Milton's Grandfathers wisdom) to look past the appearance or discomfort or fear of a given situation to see the truth that our reaction is a choice & to know that in this moment, all is well. Highly rcommend it & the art wokr is really well done too. 7 of 8 people found the following review helpful:  Question appropriate age group, By Read To Grow (SC) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Milton's Secret: An Adventure of Discovery through Then, When, and the Power of Now (Hardcover) This book is nothing like I expected it to be. Maybe I expected it to be more like Eckhart Tolle's work that is directed toward adults. I own and enjoy most of his books. I am mainly concerned with promoting the idea of keeping secrets as a positive influence for a child. That seems to require more maturity from a child than I would be comfortable in discerning. I am not sure what age group the book is intended for but I could not give it as a gift to any child that I know. I returned it. |
