Adam and Lisa Murphy are world-class storytellers, and in this book they use their talents to tell, appropriately, the stories of the world. A collection of folk tales from different cultures and traditions, these stories are fantastical and thrilling and hilarious and sad, and are all told in Adam’s distinct authorial voice: funny, wise, and full of a baffled, skeptical empathy.
In the land of the Mi'kmaq, there lived an invisible warrior who longed to be seen. In the Punjab, there lived a poor hermit who renounced riches. In Brazil, there lived a lonely princess who yearned for a playmate. Uncover these tales of wonder from around the world.
