Letlæst biografi om Buddhas liv fra fødsel til død for børn i alderen 9-11 år. Bogen udsendes i Zoom Ind Fakta som en opfølgning på biografierne om Jesus og Muhammed. Buddha kom til verden for mere end 2.500 år siden. Det er 500 år før Jesus, og over 1.000 år før Muhammed blev født. Der er mange ting, man ikke ved om Buddhas liv, fordi det er så længe siden. Men man ved, at han grundlagde en tro. Den tro hedder buddhisme. Og man ved, at hans liv begyndte i et lille kongerige for foden af de høje Himalaya-bjerge. Bogen er gennemillustreret i farve af Flemming B Jeppesen, som med stor indlevelse og poesi har visualiseret Buddhas liv og verden.
