Sharon Salzberg discusses her first children's book Kind Karl — a picture-book adaptation of Lovingkindness for four-to-eight-year-olds — with Duncan Trussell and Raghu Markus. The conversation reads the early roots of greed and fear as the same patterns adults later try to dismantle on the cushion, and treats teaching loving-kindness to children as continuous with teaching it to adults.
