This Buddhist education material is part of BuddhaNet’s E-learning course:“Buddhist Studies for Primary Students”available on the Buddha Dharma Education Association’s Web site: www.buddhanet.net

This is a book which tells a story. The story is unlike many others, because, although it has all the right ingredients, (kings, princesses, chariots and the like), this particular one is about a historical person who lived in India in the 6th century, B.C.
