Tibetan Tales from the Top of the World is a picture book featuring three beautifully illustrated tales from Tibet. A young prince, wise monkey, and magical guardian are some of the engaging characters that fill this book. Each story offers a fun, enchanting glimpse of Tibetan culture. The book is written and illustrated with full-page, full color paintings by Naomi C. Rose, and has a foreword by the Dalai Lama.
