Five star review by Reader Views (2023):

In Wu Mo’s Day: Life in a Buddhist Monastery by Dana Green and Terri Nicholson, Wu Mo has committed his life to the Buddha’s teachings. As a Buddhist monk in a small monastery, this book shows Wu’s daily life as he lives a simple, peaceful, caring life. 

From the clothes he wears, repairs, and reuses to the chores he does. In the bustling kitchen, he writes notes to spiders to let them know that he will be cleaning and to watch out so he doesn't hurt them. Even the praise for the Earth that brings him food and goodness, Wu Mo finds kindness in the world, living in peace and harmony amongst life. 

Choosing to live a monastic life, Wu Mo shows what his life looks like inside the monastery. The lives of monks and nuns may look very similar in ways to the average person's life and may look extremely different in other aspects, but the thoughts of loving-kindness and the prayers for health, happiness, and peace resonate with all. 

Authors Dana Green and Terri Nicholson have brought to the page an insider view of the monastery. Dana Green is a Buddhist nun herself while Terri Nicholson founded Instilling Goodness School. Together their writing brings an understanding that this simple life full of daily rituals and practices allows for learning and understanding of others. 

The perspective that Wu Mo shares with readers dives into his innermost thoughts and purpose. He shares the Buddhist teachings, Dharma, the clinking of [prayer] beads, the banging of the wooden fish, and the lighting of incense.
