Encounterers
With the help of a map and the magic words, the Encounterers Din Hu and Joan unravel the hidden lands. What dangers and discoveries await them in a new world full of enchantment? The possibilities are endless: being surprised by legendary beings, ETs, and talking animals; encountering birds, flowers, butterflies, foxes, monkeys, crocodiles, warriors, fishers; finding the unexpected. We see the world through the eyes of our parents, family members, and teachers, until one day we develop sensitivity, magic, enchantment, and recognize our own gaze and voice within ourselves. There is much to be discovered. Illustrated with photographs and touches of humor, this novelette uses fantasy to encourage young people to look at nature with admiration and love and protect it from being neglected.With the help of a map and the magic words, the Encounterers Din Hu and Joan unravel the hidden lands.
