Overview

Did you know we used to have tails that helped us connect to each other and the world around us? But then of course we lost our tails - or so the story goes - and now we need new ways to connect. In From Tails to Tales, best friends Huk and Tuk find a way to compensate for this loss. They discover that by discussing stories - or tales, if you like - they can recreate that deeper understanding of themselves, each other and the world, essential for feeling connected. Although the tales they discuss may seem simple, the complex questions they raise make them rewarding for adults and children to ponder together.
