Tashi and the Tibetan Flower Cure

Review
By Kirkus Reviews

A heartwarming picture book presents age-old Tibetan medical traditions with a modern, positive, community-based twist.

Painterly acrylic-on-canvas illustrations incorporate traditional Tibetan objects such as prayer flags and thangkas, sacred wall hangings, into a modern-day setting, providing a colorful window into both cultures. Additional Tibetan elements, such as Tibetan words and phrases, are sprinkled throughout and are further explained in a brief note on Tibetan-Americans at the end of the text.

An uplifting and informative peek into traditional Tibetan medicine through the lens of a modern Tibetan-American family.
