Dress your Dalai Lama...

I was browsing around on Dover Publications' web site and came across this:


The Dalai Lama Paper Doll Book:
"Complete with faithfully re-created costumes — yellow benzhida hat, puja worship shirt, and 20 more — this collection features 7 costumed dolls of the revered Buddhist leader and his parents at various periods of their lives. Educational, inspiring, and unique"

I am almost tempted to buy one on the longshot that I might get a chance to have him sign it when he's in Ann Arbor next month, since I am being given a ticket to go see him speak (thanks [livejournal.com profile] sorcycat and [livejournal.com profile] curiouskendra!!).

I wish I had gone to see him speak when I lived there. Enjoy.

I don't know whether to be grossed out by the tack-factor or amused. I'm glad you're not offended!

I'd be interested to hear what His Holiness might think of the book, actually. It's an odd format, but essentially this is a biography.

Oh, that's cooler than I thought.
