"Who would you be without your mean thoughts? The beautiful child you almost forgot! 'Zack Naturally' is called a 'Zen companion' because its prime mission is to help young people to realize that they are so much more than their thoughts suggest. Zen psychology borrows from East Asian wisdom that holds that human beings, no matter what mistakes they've made and what doubts they may have, are perfect parts of nature and thus need no apologies to just be themselves. In this clever poetic dialogue between a mother and her son, Dr. LoConte uses simple natural elements to help children ages 7 to 107 realized that we are exactly the way that we should be and that feeling 'less than' is only a sign that we are thinking something about ourselves that isn't true in the natural world." from the back cover.
