Peaceful Piggy Meditation

On week two of this term I tried to reproduce the successful results I had on week one. We read Peaceful Piggy Meditation a short story about family life in today's fast world. 
The basic premise is that since "Sometimes the world can be such a busy, noisy place" then "it's good to meditate."

According to Amazon, the author is a certified  meditation teacher for children.
The books is very nice, both the writing and the illustrations. For teaching in a large class in fact that images are somewhat realistic makes reading it more difficult: all kids want to see them!

For the older kids I think the story was less interesting than the "Hermit and the Well" I read last week.
