WELCOME TO A FUN AND EDUCATIONAL DOORWAY
INTO ANDEAN LIFE AND CULTURE!
A book that offers much to love…and much to learn.
“An Andean Story in Stone” is a charming children’s story that introduces Andean South American culture through the symbols carved on an ancient Incan sculpture.
The story is narrated by a lovable guinea pig named Max.
With Max’s help, the symbols express several
self-affirming and timeless themes common in Andean culture and valuable to all children:
-
That they are loved.
-
That those who love them will keep them safe from danger.
-
That the Earth’s environment is fundamental to all people.
-
That we share a responsibility to protect the natural world on which our lives depend.
-
That the passage of time brings great natural change.
-
That the passage of time brings a child knowledge, strength and grace.
-
That we should honor the woman in society, our mothers and Mother Nature for the life they provide.
-
That life is precious.
-
That they are precious.
