Animals are featured in many popular children’s stories, and India’s religious and secular literature abounds in tales featuring Indian jungle species. This engaging and entertaining collection of jungle stories lifts four characters out of the two hundred year-old Assamese folk tales. Jungle Heroes reinvents these animals and brings an imaginative and uplifting perspective that reaches beyond their former depictions, which were often negative in the original narratives. Monkey and Fox, from one story, rediscover the true nature of friendship, spreading the spirit of harmony and goodwill throughout their area of the jungle to the other forms of life they meet in their travels.Author Bio: Author Neville Kirkwood has lived on the edge of two India Forest Reserves. He has had personal contact with each of the animals introduced in these stories, and has observed many of their delightful traits, along with their very feral ones. Jungle Heroes reflects the subtleties of character and interrelationships, and strives to teach an important message of harmony while it entertains readers of all ages.Neville Kirkwood is a retired Chaplain and public speaker who lives in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. His forthcoming books are That’s Life - Different Voices, Tales from Old Iron Bark Gum, Spiritual Intervention - A Perceptive Ministry and To Live Again - After Separation and Divorce, a manual Mr. Kirkwood prepared for a course he developed for separated and divorced people.Publisher’s Web site: http: //www.strategicpublishinggroup.com/title/JungleHeroes.html
