About Author
Dharma Master Cheng Yen was born in 1937 in a small town in Taichung County, Taiwan. When she was twenty-three years old, she left home to become a Buddhist nun, and was instructed by her mentor, Venerable Master Yin Shun, to work “for Buddha’s teachings, for sentient beings.” In 1966, she founded a charity, which later turned into the Buddhist Tzu Chi Foundation, to “help the poor and educate the rich”—to give material aid to the needy and inspire love and humanity in both givers and recipients.
In recent years, Master Cheng Yen’s contributions have been increasingly recognized by the global community. In 2011, she was recognized with the Roosevelt Institute’s FDR Distinguished Public Service Award and was named to the 2011 TIME 100 list of the world’s most influential people. In 2014, she was presented with Rotary International’s Award of Honor in recognition of her humanitarian efforts and contributions to world peace.
Introduction
Grandma’s Mole is the second of the series, Master Cheng Yen Tells Stories; it contains a collection of three stories: “The Mountain Rats and the Leopard Cat,” “The Monkey Thieves,” and “Grandma’s Mole.” Each of these stories is brought to life through colorful illustrations and teaches children wholesome values based on the Master’s teachings. In the third and last story, Grandma's Mole, an ox that was raised by an elderly woman worked hard to repay the love and care it received - it serves to remind children of the importance of filial piety. With easy-to-understand bilingual text (Traditional Chinese with pinyin and English), this book helps non-Chinese readers to learn Chinese and Chinese readers to learn English.
The calf had shiny black fur and always
stayed by Grandma’s side, so she gave
the calf an unusual but interesting name,
“Grandma’s Mole.” One day, a caravan of
heavy carts got stuck in the mud of a stream.
The merchant spotted Grandma’s Mole
and asked him, “If you help me pull the carts out of the stream,
I'll give you a strand of 1,000 coins.”
Would Grandma’s Mole care to work hard to earn this money?
