1 y separately published work icon The Beautiful Mare and the Boy Who Gave Thanks Marc Cohen , Kia Maddock (illustrator), Warrandyte North : Pronoia Press , 2018 14908351 2018 single work picture book children's

'This is an inspiring coming of age story, that shows how staying open and choosing your own path creates the possibility of a life filled with gratitude and love. What's the best response to injury or losing something you love? When bad things happen, the Chinese say "Sai Weng Shi Ma" (remember the man who lost his horse). This saying refers to an ancient story of a wise man who remains calm when his prized horse runs away and his son breaks his leg, and the villagers who are surprised when these events turn out to be blessings in disguise. This story dates back more than 2500 years to the time of Lao Tzu and has been told and retold by spiritual teachers through the ages to show the limits of judgement, the wisdom in equanimity, and the two sides to every circumstance. Yet, the story of the 'man who lost his horse' has an even deeper message that has never been revealed. Until now. This beautifully illustrated adaptation, tells the previously untold story of the man's son. It is the story of the ever-changing world of a small village where the villagers see things as good or bad, the wise man accepts things as they are, and the man's son stays open to possibility and finds gratitude in all that comes to pass. Join the boy's journey of discovery as his attention shifts from nature, to friendship, power, learning and love.' (Publication summary)
