An author and poet, welcomed for his reflective and thought-provoking style, retells 10 stories from different cultures - from around the world and through the ages - which each highlight the importance of taking care of the world.

These stories - from ancient Greece, the Far East, the Celts, Africa, Greenland, Russia, China, Japan, South America and ancient Israel - afford wonderful opportunities for Jane Ray's paradisiacal paintings of trees and flowers, animals and birds... in short, all creation.

"Beautifully designed...the illustrations feature crisp, clear, jewel-like colours in a primitive style, which neatly matches the excellent storytelling of the text. A welcome addition to world tale shelves"
