Review:
"The Banyan Deer shows that the lives of all living beings are equally important." Author: His Holiness the Seventeenth Karmapa, Ogyen Trinley Dorje
"A sweet and sensitive story of courage, sacrifice and kindness." Author: Dan Millman, author of The Way of the Peaceful Warrior
"The narrative of a deer king who lays his life on the line not only for his own people but for all creatures, this story is a tale for all ages, with many subtleties layered beneath its surface. Though this is originally a Buddhist story, the text does well regardless of belief system (or lack thereof). The Banyan Deer is a welcome addition to any collection." Author: Elephant Journal
"The Banyan Deer by Rafe Martin, a gifted storyteller and award-winning author, is the ultimate story of courage and compassion... In less capable hands, this story is instructive but hardly riveting, but in Martin's it's a page-turner." Author: Tynette Deveaux, "Good Reads for Little Buddhas," Shambhala Sun
