Come Back, O Tiger!

Product Description

Meet two whimsical tree spirits, one wise and the other foolish. They play together happily until one night a tiger sat under the tree of the foolish spirit, growling and gnawing on a stinking carcass. The foolish tree spirit said, "The tiger is making a mess. The air is no longer fresh and clean. I’m getting rid of that beast!" The wise tree spirit said, "Please don’t! The life of the forest depends on the tiger." But the foolish tree spirit didn’t listen.

Years passed and peace still reigned in the forest. But one day a boy came to the forest and saw that the tiger was gone. Soon the forest was full of people cutting down trees for houses, building fires, and piling up trash. Can the forest be saved?

Rich illustrations breathe life into the retelling of this Jataka tale, in which the Buddha appears as a wise tree spirit to teach that every being is a living part of the earth and has its place in nature.

Activities are included to help children connect with the lesson in the story and how to lessen their own carbon imprint.

Full color illustration, hardcover.
