Enlighten Me

In the middle-grade graphic novel Enlighten Me, published by Little, Brown in 2023, author Minh Lê and illustrator Chan Chau explore a young boy's journey of self-discovery through mindfulness and Buddhist philosophy. The story follows a child sent to a meditation retreat, where he learns to navigate his emotions and family dynamics. This single-issue work matters for its gentle, accessible introduction to Eastern spiritual concepts for young readers, blending heartfelt storytelling with evocative art.
