The adventures of young
Lord Krishna, enjoyed for centuries by Indian
children.
For
centuries the children of India have grown up hearing
the tales of Lord Krishna's
adventures as a boy. Krishna has been the favorite of
young and old alike because of his delightfully mischievous
nature yet genuine and soulful heart. Now the entertaining
and instructive tales of Krishna's youth are available
for Western children, who will likewise be enamored
of the magical journeys taken by young Krishna in a
land full of mysterious gods and unusual animals.
The "Little Krishna" book includes 40 detailed illustrations painted in authentic and classic Indian style, according to the Harish Johari Wash Painting Tradition. The stories are entertaining as well as instructive. It represents a rich slice of popular Indian lore made accessible for Western children. With a host of characters drawn from the rich breadth of Indian lore, Little Krishna will show children the value of kindness, the importance of preserving what you create, and the boundless nature of wisdom. Accompanied by the richly intricate color illustrations prepared following the traditional canon, each with prescribed geometric and artistic proportions, these stories will transport children to a magical world filled with ancient wisdom. In India children are taught that the stories of Krishna will help awaken and develop their own spiritual nature and that they should take to heart the lessons little Krishna learned from his adventures. But they also know this ancient lore provides some great storytelling. Harish Johari's life's work and writings continue with the help of his youngest daughter, Sapna Johari, who lives in India, and his other students around the world. His brother Suresh Johari created the sketches and concept for Little Krishna and his long-time Dutch student Pieter Weltevrede created the finished color illustrations.
