Tales of Wisdom and Wonder by Hugh Lupton
Nothing is quite as it seems in this book; so prepare yourself to be astonished, intrigued and enchanted as you follow the magical transformations that occur among these pages. You will meet remarkable animals as well as extraordinary people, among them a curing fox, an inquisitive monkey, a clever farmer and a very unusual butterfly. Beautifully captured by Niamh Sharkey's quirky and perceptive illustrations, these tales have all of the colour and vigour of the countries and cultures they represent.
