Pearl in the Rice brings the transforming power of the Vietnamese fable to life. These beautiful stories all have a spiritual theme and they speak to us in many and varied ways. How do we overcome greed? What is the meaning of real beauty and how is it discovered? Do we need to continue unhealthy behaviors that have been in our family for years? The meaning of true friendship is often discovered in not always giving what is requested, but rather what is needed.
Translated from the original Vietnamese, these fables contain the wisdom and teachings of ancient times which still speak to us today.
