Beschreibung

Touching and humorous, a little monk reveals the significance of quietude in daily life--with charming illustrations.

The personal experiences of a Benedictine monk are intertwined with a story about a little monk and his learning of the Benedictine tradition. Focusing on the importance of silence in our lives despite the noise of the world, the little monk is left to wonder about its value when it is often associated with nothingness. Intertwined with quotes from the Rule of St. Benedict and sets of simple questions and exercises, the little monk invites us to join him in pondering about how to incorporate the peace of silence into our busy lives.
