4.0 out of 5 stars A winsome tale!, July 31, 2001

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Sister Shako and Kolo the Goat (Hardcover)
The translation of this children's story is rough around the edges. In spite of that, Sister Shako and Kolo the Goat is a winsomely told tale. The author embroiders his memories of growing up in Turkey with mythology and folk wisdom. Readers clearly see how people, rooted in the soil and in an agrarian economy, learn about the interconnectedness of life. We need more children's books like this where mythology and "real life" blend into a charming and uplifting story.
