Cloud Tea Monkeys

(3) 1-3 Illustrated by Juan Wijngaard. Tashi shares her fruit with the wild monkeys near the tea plantation where her mother toils. When her mother falls ill, the monkeys bring Tashi "cloud tea," which she sells for enough money to solve her problems. Inspired by Himalayan legends, this original tale has a timeless feel. Delicate ink and gouache paintings and ink vignettes display rural mountain life.
