Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The monsters of growing up never stay the same.In the first book, they roared - anger, panic, a loneliness you could see coming and learn to face. In the second book of The Time-Stoppers Trilogy, they go quiet. They stop shouting and start whispering: You are not special enough. You do not belong here. If people really knew you, they would leave. These are the invisible monsters - the ones that wear your own face, speak in your own voice, and hide inside the very groups you most want to join.Svasti and Sujata are no longer wide-eyed children discovering mindfulness for the first time. They are teenagers now, living inside the Buddha's monastery and learning a harder lesson: the real battle is not fought against bullies or storms, but inside your own head - in the gap between who you are and who the world wants you to be.Behind the garden gates you will meet Rahula, a prince who learns that being a famous father's son makes you ordinary, and ordinary is terrifying; Nanda, so heartbroken he has stopped eating; Sunita, a boy the world has decided is invisible, who finds that the bravest thing he can do is refuse to disappear; and Devadatta, a man with a beautiful smile building an empire out of leaving people out.This book hands young readers new magic for real life: the Real-Self Inventory, to peel away every label the world has stuck on them; Watch the Wave, to ride enormous feelings without being swept under; and the Belonging Check, three questions that reveal whether a group is making you bigger or smaller.For teens wrestling with identity and belonging - and the parents who love them - this is a story about discovering that when everything borrowed is stripped away, what remains is not emptiness. It is freedom.The garden gates are opening. What grows inside may surprise you.
