BUDDHIST ANIMAL WISDOM STORIES
by Mark W. McGinnis

8.75" x 11.25," 112 pp., hard cover.

#BUANWI - $ 19.95
Around the beginning of the common era, Indian Buddhists began to collect fables illuminating various human virtues and foibles--from kindness, cooperation, loyalty and self-discipline on the one hand to greed, pride, foolishness, and treachery on the other. Instead of populating these stories with people, they cast the animals of their immediate environment in the leading roles--which may have given the tales a universal appeal that helped them travel around the world, surfacing in the Middle East as Aesop's fables and in various other guises throughout East and Southeast Asia, Africa, Russia, and Europe.
