Overview

First published by Celestial Arts in 1982, this reformatted collection of short stories--which draw inspiration from folklore and spiritual teachings--remind readers to respect and treasure the company of animals. Intricate borders, full-color paintings, and calligraphy give this book the look and feel of an illuminated manuscript.

Brief tales of wise and holy people who have lived gently with animals, from various countries and cultures, including tales of St. Francis, Buddha, and Siddhartha, and European and Oriental legends.
