The Noble Wilds Readers CommentsPeter Weidhaas, President of the Conference of International Book Fairs and Director of the Frankfurt Book Fair from 1975-2000: Personally, I think that we don t just live alone on the Earth, but that all creatures, even the plants, are our brothers and sisters that we have to accept. The Earth is our mother, our basis; we come from her and we must return to her again. And that s why we need a lot of reverence for life and for Earth, and these kinds of books help. The book has a nice emotional element, in the illustrations. I wish for the book to find a wide audience and many happy readers.So Yeon Park, chairperson of CARE, largest animal protection group in Korea: This book tells us how these little animals have emotions toward each other, and even have names. We think only humans can have names, but this book says animals can have names as well and communicate with one another. I m mostly happy and grateful to the author for that point.Ms.Iva BelichkaEditor-in-Chief of Zornitsa newspaper in Montreal, Canada: The first book, I read to my daughter Yana, who is 11 years old and she was very delighted by the photos themselves, because she likes drawing very much; and also by the words which are written there.I do not know the time span in which Master Ching Hai managed to do all this because it is a very great wealth indeed such photos, such pictures, I really do not know who could make it so professionally, on one hand, and on the other hand it truly reveals profound things from nature which we have not thought of, we do not think of them.  She is a gifted person and we need to receive more information through her, so I leave this idea to you to share this information with children from a young age.Son Ji-Young, Librarian, Pogok Library, Seoul, Korea: I m a librarian and I ve read countless books, but with this book, from the first page to the last, I could really feel the author put an incredible degree of effort and affection into creating this book. Seeing the pictures and reading the stories, I felt that they are so beautiful and artistic.  Also the contents of the book have informed me of the nobleness of the wilds and of the incredible secrets never known before.Kim Young-Kyu, Korean regional military administration: I read The Noble Wilds not long ago. I was greatly happy to hear that the book became #1 bestseller at Amazon.com recently, and I sincerely send my congratulations for this achievement as the top bestseller. Before reading this book, I thought that humans are the lords of all creation and reign over all animals, but through the book, I realized that the animal world also has a realm of sensitivity, which is even more noble than that of humans. So, I came to think a lot that we should not rule or reign over animals from now on. I wholeheartedly thank Supreme Master Ching Hai, the author of this book, and, I hope it can be translated into Korean quickly so that this book can be read by many people.Jenny Tamas, Director of Grey Haven Exotic Bird Sanctuary, Vancouver, Canada: I think it is absolutely fantastic. It is a very calming book. The pictures are wonderful. It gives you a warm feeling when you look through this book. And you know that each and every one of these, these little God s creatures are so very delicate and we have to go with respect, when we are visiting them, and this book has been wonderful and it shows you that. --Readers reviews for The Noble Wilds book
