Speaking to an Elephant

and Other Tales from the Kadars

von , ,

This collection of unusual folklore features the world of the Kadars, a small indigenous community in south India. Originally narrated to the authors by Kadar elders, these stories recall ways of living in forest habitats that hold important lessons for all those interested in regrowing our forests. Textured and evocative illustrations by Matthew Frame bring alive the world of animals and foliage in a tropical forest. This handsome book complements the authors’ other title, Walking is a Way of Knowing.
