This is a great book, whether you‘re working with kids and want a way to get them to think differently about the world, or if you‘re just interesting in philosophy. Either way, by the time you finish this book, you‘ll want to find some kids and have a proper philosophical conversation. Not to mention, the cover is absolutely adorable. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

GingerAntics I genuinely appreciated that she included a wonderful balance of Western and Eastern philosophy, as well as including plenty of female philosophers. This is definitely not your standard Western Philosophy 101 book, but maybe this is how we should be teaching philosophy to people of all ages. This book tied in will with my own explorations is Eastern Philosophy. I have a whole new reading list of Buddhist philosophers now, thanks to this book. 👇🏻 6y
GingerAntics It has also reignited my love for Søren Kierkegaard. This book is a true philosophical gem. ?????? 6y
GingerAntics My only real issue with this book was that it had a massive problem with not putting spaces between the end of one sentence and the beginning of the next. It seems this is such a simple thing and most word processing programs in 2006 (when the book was written) certainly would have either done that automatically or would have alerted the author and/or editor to it. It‘s rampant. Someone really needs to go in and fix this. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻 6y
GingerAntics To a lesser extent, there is also an issue with a space existing between the last word of a sentence and it‘s punctuation. Again, I don‘t know how this got through editing with such basic and glaring errors. #MariettaMcCarty #littlebigminds #philosophy 6y

It‘s amazing what atrocities are possible when individuals resign their own individual thoughts and surrender to mob mentality. Centuries of violent anti-semitism turn into the Holocaust, unrest turns into the murder of the Tzar and his innocent children and the rise of communism, racism turns into a wholly unqualified bigot moving into the White House. THINK FOR YOURSELVES PEOPLE!!! I BEG OF YOU!!!

I really do love this guy. He‘s a Danish philosopher, but he‘s very eastern in his thinking.

wanderinglynn I enjoy reading Kierkegaard‘s philosophy. I studied it a lot in undergrad. 6y
GingerAntics @wanderinglynn so excited to find another Søren fan!!! I haven‘t read him since the very beginning of undergrad, so I‘m looking forward to digging into him now. 6y

Oh Kierkegaard, my old friend!!! At one time he was my favorite philosopher. I think it might be time to return to that. I like his approach to the individual versus heard mentality.

Still on the first chapter, but I have already been repeatedly stunned at the profound answers even kindergarteners give to these big, philosophical questions. #littlebigminds #mariettamccarty #philosophicalquestionoftheday #POD #kidsrock

GingerAntics @JenlovesJT47 if only we knew someone who spoke baby talk, we could get Jace‘s answers. I‘ve got money in they‘re great. You can just see the little wheels spinning in his adorable little head. 6y
