This collection of unusual folklore features the world of the Kadars, a small indigenous community in south India. Originally narrated to the authors by Kadar elders, these stories recall ways of living in forest habitats that hold important lessons for all those interested in regrowing our forests. Textured and evocative illustrations by Matthew Frame bring alive the world of animals and foliage in a tropical forest.

Speaking to an Elephant: And Other Tales from the Kadars | Madhuri Ramesh, Manish Chandi

pick

The Kadars are an Adivasi community living in the Annamalai and Parambikulam hills in Southern India.

This book is a soulful collection of folk tales of the Kadar indigenous community, passed down across generations & centuries. They instil deep love and reverence for the forest; while also showing us how to coexist with the forest and her creatures peacefully, sharing our collective resources.

The artwork is brilliant and it‘s a collectible.
