Krishna Bedtime Stories: Before the Beginning

A tiger cub is injured by a hunter in the Tiger Ridge Mountains and is rushed by deer medics to a clinic in Tamel Forest where Father Parrot is mayor of the Northwest Region and the parent of three feisty fledglings. Rather coincidentally, a wise female Veda Guardian arrives in the region to put a fine point on the stories about Lord Krishna, His companion, and His spiritual world that Father Parrot has begun teaching his children and their creaturely neighbors. In this stunningly illustrated first volume, the Vedic teachings are introduced especially for children through the Tamel Forest allegory.
