About this title

Review:

"Where is Tibet? celebrates a delightful spirit. Its answer to its own question, "Look into your heart," sends a message of hope and empowerment to all children. There is no book like it today." Gene Pool, author of The Captain of Battery Park and Dean of Students at the Buckingham Browne and Nichols School

"Thoughtful--no other word more singularly suggests the author's effort in this lovely children's book."--Asian Reporter
