<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>Brilliant retellings of some of the world's and India's earliest stories, beloved by children and adults alike for over 2,000 years.</strong><br /> <em>In a small forest, a hare convinces his friends--a monkey, a jackal and a water-weasel--to share their food with the hungry. But when the hare finds nothing to eat, and a fairy disguised as an old man comes asking for food, what does the hare do?</em><br /> <em>The king of monkeys asks his tribe to keep the delicious mangoes in their forest a secret from humans. But what happens when Brhmadatta, the king of humans, discovers the fruit and wants more of it?</em><br /> <em>A king spots the mysterious and beautiful deer, Sarabha, deep in the woods. He wishes to capture it but falls into a deep chasm on the way. Will Sarabha rescue him? </em><br /> The twenty stories in <em>Great Jataka Tales</em>, retold by the remarkable writer Noor Inayat Khan, have been drawn from the Buddha's former lives and the legends around him. These tales bring alive a world from long, long ago: a world that shows the importance of courage, compassion, non-violence and love. Written in simple, dramatic prose and beautifully illustrated in full colour, these magical stories will enchant a new generation of readers.</p>
