THE PROUD HEN is the third story for children in the illustrated series, HIMALAYAN TALES.

As a child in Gilgit-Baltistan in the Himalayas, Rashid Naeem was told many exciting and uplifting stories by his parents. These stories had been passed from parent to child over many generations, without ever having been written down.

The stories are magical, with witches, talking birds and animals. They introduce great dramas where good confronts evil. Eventually conflicts are resolved and this leads to a happy and contented life. The stories carry an uplifting theme of how we must care for others, especially those who are downtrodden by life.

Rashid has edited these stories and translated them from Shina (the Gilgit language). Rashid wishes to thank his parents, relatives and friends for their great help in collecting the stories.

The illustrations for The Proud Hen have been done by Alan Greenwell, who lives in the UK and has spent time in Gilgit-Baltistan.

Other stories in the HIMALAYAN TALES series: -

Sparrow, Zoro and the Witch, The Clever Donkey, Lady Moon, The Bad King, The Good King, The Wild Goat, Pilti and Polti, Daisy and her Father.
