New monks

This week I went to a ceremony for boys and young men who were becoming monks.

The boys and young men you can see with the lace over their shoulders are about to become monks. They already have their heads shaved. The one on the left is very young. Maybe as young as Ben. Now he is a monk. He doesn't live with his parents. He lives at the monastery with all the other monks.

Do you think you would like to be a monk?
