The Boy with a Hundred Questions | Questions of a kid | Book review

 

Book review:

As a teacher, I understand many kids face issues in solving riddles or have a deep fear of even seeking answers to their questions. Especially when it comes to maths,  many run away from their place saying, I will do it later. This is a simple trick for them to depart themselves from questions that they find difficult. Then I stumbled upon this book, that says, "The Boy With Hundred Questions", I got intrigued by his questions.

"The Boy with a Hundred Questions" is the story of a young child who has many questions. His quest takes him on a journey through the big ideas that make up faith, the teachings of various belief systems, the connections between faith and science and how all these together make us humans who we are.

This is a sweet story about a boy called, "Shunya". He is mocked by his friends about his name meaning zero. He was so curious about knowing why he was named so despite his parents having such a beautiful name. One day when he gets to know about his father's achievement about doppelgangers. His quest reaches another peak.

It is intriguing to read about how he discovers varied things and discovers the reality of life. He embarks on an enchanting journey through mystical tales, mind-blending beliefs and profound philosophies.

The book aims to open up conversations on various aspects of faith. It hopes to encourage children to ask questions without fear or hesitation, learn about traditional beliefs, respect and accept diversity, treat every individual and community equally, celebrate cultural co-existence, put together their own personal ideas of faith and help build a peaceful world.

Overall, this is a book about the ways of life, mysteries of the natural and supernatural realms, the process of self-discovery and more. Highly recommended!
