I like this book because it relays an important message about the impact human’s actions have on the world and its inhabitants. If we do not work to protect our environment then it could have dire consequences for future generations. This book teaches children about the importance of home and how their actions can affect the lives of animals in the world.

I started reading this book somewhat grudgingly and after a tumultuous ride on a journey with the author, I came to this. It describes the author's confusion about whether God is personal or impersonal and how one day Srila Prabhupada removed his confusion. I had the same confusion regarding the nature of the divine and this removed my confusion as well. But unlike the author, I lean towards striving to attain the divine as impersonal through meditation. I will always remember this book for this section which inspired me to resume my spiritual quest. His meetings with Garry were another lesson of Hope, faith & friendship. We meet people only when it's the right time. Because "GOD has a plan for every one of us".

To educate pupils about different habitats, living conditions and climate change in Geography lessons. Imagine that you could draw a magic door from your classroom / bedroom wall into another world. Draw the view to the other side. One group of second-generation members made the trip together with their survivor or former refugee parents. Others went after their parents’ death. Those with elderly parents, unable to travel, went without them but often communicated to them how they had retraced their family history. Some undertook the journey to help them come to terms with the burden of the past. Others saw it as part of the grieving process for a lost world and family that they would never know.

The Journey Home: Autobiography of an American Swami, 2008 Edition. http://www.thejourneyhomebook.com/. ISBN 978-1-60109-044-7I felt a warm, peaceful sensation flood my chest. With one hand Srila Prabhupada stretched his index finger upward. “The Lord’s impersonal, all-pervading energy is called Brahman. And Bhagavan is the personal form of God, who is the energetic source and never under the influence of illusion. Take for example the sun. The form of the sun as a planet and the formless sunlight can never be separated, as they exist simultaneously. They are different aspects of the sun. Similarly, there are two different schools of transcendentalists who focus on different aspects of the one truth. The impersonalists strive to attain liberation in the Lord’s impersonal, formless light, while the personalists strive for eternal loving service to the Lord’s all-attractive form. There is no contradiction. However the politics and social commentary are handled with an iron fist, and there is no deft touch with it! It is a hugely thought-provoking but very sad book. All the beautiful illustrations in this book appear in muted colours, unusual for children's picture books. The colour scheme tells us right away, even without the use of words: It's a dark scary world out there where animals are left adrift and abandoned to fend for themselves, without the help and protection they should get from mankind. To teach children about the world and global warming. It can be used to encourage children to take an active part in protecting the environment in PSHCE lessons. They could calculate their carbon footprint and make a conscious effort to reduce it for example by walking to school instead of getting the bus, or driving.
