Arjun is so excited for the race in the park. There's a shiny gold ribbon waiting at the finish line, and he wants it badly — until he looks over and sees his friend Cassian, who is fast. Really fast. Suddenly Arjun's tummy ties itself in a knot: "If I do not win it, I'll cry quite a lot!"
Dada kneels down for a hug and tells Arjun an ancient story — about a warrior named Arjuna, who once felt so afraid of how his own big battle would end that he wanted to give up entirely. A wise friend named Krishna steadied him with a simple truth: you are only ever in charge of your effort, never the result.
The Boy Who Stopped Keeping Score helps little ones name the fear of losing, feel understood, and discover that real joy lives in showing up and doing your best — not in the prize at the end.
Why families love this series:
- Soothing rhyming text, written to be read aloud
- Emotionally intelligent — the big feeling is named and validated before it is soothed
- Timeless wisdom made tiny — a real teaching from the Bhagavad Gita (verse 2.47, on karma yoga), retold for ages 2–6
- Warm, gentle artwork and a lovable cast: Arjun, his Dada, his friend Cassian, and Breggo the little dog
- A note for parents at the end, with the verse, the moral, and how to share it
Perfect for toddlers and preschoolers who hate to lose, get big feelings about winning, or are learning what good sportsmanship feels like — and for families who want to share the heart of the Gita in the sweetest, simplest way.
Part of the Gita Books for Children series — everyday childhood moments, guided by the timeless wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita.
Run your own race, and have fun doing it.
