The Lion Book of Wisdom Stories by David Self
Each of these stories focuses on some of the key issues that face humankind and on how they can be resolved wisely. Drawn from a variety of different cultures around the world, this book offers a glimpse of people of every background and how we can learn from one another. Issues include: sharing resources justly; how people of good faith outwit the spiteful; pride before a fall; and the nature of true riches. The illustrations from Christina Balit are fittingly ethnic in nature and bring the stories to life with brilliant hues and stylish detailing.
DAVID SELF is a prolific and highly respected writer of RE textbooks, with an easy-to-read style. Christina Balit is a graduate of the Royal College of Art. An acclaimed children's book artist, she has always longed to illustrate the Bible. She has received widespread praise for books including Blodin the Beast, Ishtar and Tammuz and The Twelve Labours of Hercules. Of British and Armenian descent, Christina spent her childhood years in the ancient lands of the Middle East --- the very landscapes where so many of the Bible's tales are set.
