Title: Age 11 and Siddhartha
Review: Hello. My name is Rebecca and I am 13 years old. I go to a school where we are challenged to read beyond our regular level. This school goes from preschool through 9th grade. When I first entered 6th grade here, the required portion of the summer reading list contained: The Essential Haiku and Siddhartha. As an 11 year old, I wasn't thrilled. However, now that I've read it, I've realized so much, and changed so much, about my natural way of life. Everything seemed so simple! As an average American kid, I always have 'places to go and people to see'. After I read Siddhartha, I tried to slow down. Rushing just wasn't a good way to live your life.Thank you, Herman Hesse, for a way to let a young kid know what's important.
