Mustard Seed: A Buddhist Tale of Grief and Courage is a contemporary retelling of a traditional Buddhist story that has helped people find strength and meaning in difficult times. This retelling in comic form uses watercolor techniques and a loose, flowing style to approach sensitive material in a gentle way. The language and examples are deliberately modern-day, taking the tale's meaning beyond ancient India and into the present.

Trigger warning: This is a story about a mother’s emotional struggles after the death of her infant child. She seeks guidance from the Buddha, who skillfully leads her to accept the truth of impermanence. This understanding allows her wisdom and compassion to grow.
