Missing a Few Jewels (Matte Cover)

A Tale from Brazil

Beschreibung

I gather folk tales with me as I wander the globe. In more recent years, I've gathered them as I paint community murals. So far, I have 63 murals in 27 countries. It's why I have such a varied collection of tales. For an absolutely amazing experience with some of the world's friendliest people, I highly recommend travel in Brasil. (That's how it is spelled there.) Missing a Few Jewels is a tale about a young prince who really doesn't do well learning from books in school. He's short a few cards in the deck, dealing with a few loose screws, and missing a few jewels from his royal crown. It is decided that he may learn best by traveling the world. And, the young prince thrives. Along the way, he gathers a singing bird, a bug that can did, one very special butterfly, and a damsel in distress. Of course, it all ends happily ever after.

Autor

I have been a blessed traveler. I've heard tales of travel disasters when wanderers like me meet up with the wrong kinds of people on their journey. Or, I've heard of others who say that they were not very welcomed wherever it was they roamed. That just hasn't been my story! Wherever I go, no matter what corner of the planet, I have encountered the world at its best. I do believe that part of this comes down to reaping what you sow. If you spread a little kindness along your way, people are much more likely to shovel sugar back at you. And, in my experience, it has been difficult to out-give the kindness of the friends that I have met on my path. I get help from so many sources. I rely on taxi drivers, hotel staff, and restaurant servers. And, since I have started coloring the world with murals, so many other doors have opened up to me. Thank you to all the many people who have crossed my path. There truly are too many to name.
