Beneath The Moon
Powerful and universal retellings of seventy-eight divine stories, legends, and myths from around the world, each accompanied by a gorgeous illustration from acclaimed artist Yoshi Yoshitani. In this riveting collection of fables and folktales from cultures across the globe, characters from beloved fairytales, cultural fables, ancient mythologies, and inspirational deities are brought to life, including Sleeping Beauty (Italy), Rapunzel (Germany), Jack and the Beanstalk (England), Our Lady of Guadalupe (Mexico), Sun God Ra (Egypt), the Crane Wife (Japan), and dozens more. Many of the lessons we learn are shared stories passed among cultures and generations.
The recurring themes of conquering evil, overcoming adversity, and finding love and companionship are woven throughout this collection. Lesser-known stories introduce characters such as the volcano goddess Pele from Hawaii; Mwindo, the wise and powerful king of the Nyanga people; and the strong and resilient Yennenga, mother of the Mossi people in Burkina Faso. Yoshi Yoshitani's art style is fresh and unique, featuring diverse and multicultural characters.
Each story will be featured opposite a correlating illustration, both lush and vibrant.
