Review

I think this book is quite good. It appeals to humankind to protect the wild animals. I also hope Supreme Master Ching Hai can guide us in treasuring the Earth and protecting our environment. --~Mr. Hsiao-Yu Tang, Director of Endemic Species Research Institute, Council of Agriculture, Executive Yuan of Formosa

The Earth is our mother, our basis, we come from her and we must return to her again. And that s why we need a lot of reverence for life and for Earth, and these kinds of books help. I wish for the book to find a wide audience and many happy readers. --~Peter Weidhaas, President of the Conference of International Book Fairs and Director of the Frankfurt Book Fair from 1975-2000

This book tells us how these little animals have emotions toward each other, and even have names. I m most happy and grateful to the author for that point. --~So Yeon Park , Chairperson of CARE, the largest animal protection group in Korea

Product Description

With a rhythmic, meditative tone, the words of The Noble Wilds flow gracefully along the pages, complemented by the luminous photos of God s creations in nature. Turning the pages, one is transported to Amoura, the place where the lady lives and is visited by cherished beings of the wild. The lady is none other than Supreme Master Ching Hai, and The Noble Wilds is yet another of Her simple but deeply touching gifts. Written, photographed and compiled personally by Master, this precious gem opens the door to a world of unique beauty. Here, the reader can witness firsthand the noble spirit and dedication of our co-inhabitants whose homes are under the open sky the swan, the goose, the squirrel, the beaver and even a tiny garden snail. Although generally shy of humans, these animals allow themselves to be photographed, and indeed can even be seen eagerly approaching the lady s gentle offering of favorite foods. The love conveyed is unlike any other full of dignity and grace, yet as deep and enduring as the eternal. All books are printed by ''Soy Ink for Environmental protection''. Such ink is not only nontoxic but also very helpful for environment of the mother earth which is an good example of ''time to act''....

5.0 out of 5 stars What a touching and informative book!, April 7, 2008

By	J. Campbell (Ottawa, Canada) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Although I spent a lot of time watching animals as a child, I did not deeply understand their feelings and emotions until The Noble Wilds. The story in this book that most touches my heart is about a female goat who, when she became pregnant, ran away from her human caretaker. This loving little mother goat telepathically told the author that she was concerned for the lives of her unborn babies, as she feared her human caretaker would eat her baby goats after they were born. Thanks to the author's intervention, the story has a very happy ending. I now realize that animals completely understand the thoughts and intentions of the humans around them. Definitely a book worth buying for both yourself and your children!

5.0 out of 5 stars The book I want to keep on reading .... , April 7, 2008

By	Jim "Sunplus" (San Jose, CA. USA) - See all my reviews

A marvelous and refreshing book that brings comfort and peace to me every time I open it - from page one till the end, I enjoyed the theme as if I am right next to the swan, the lake, the forest, and the wilds. I didn't know there is so many magnificent characters in the wilds until the book revealed to me! What a wonderful artwork! Gorgeous pictures save me from the jungle of city! Never seen the words in a book are so simple, nature and yet full of careness and love. It's so easy to read without being bombarded with the big words or sophisticated phrases. That's awesome!
