Description

Seekers of all ages have been inspired by the stirring message of Old Turtle, the beloved, award-winning wisdom tale of peace. Now Old Turtle returns in a timeless story about love, acceptance, and the nature of truth.

Long ago, as truth descended onto earth, it split in two: one piece landing a number of the people and the other blazing through the sky. When the people discover the piece of truth, it gives them strength and happiness. But through the years, it turns them arrogant and greedy. They do not share their truth with others, wars rage on, and the earth begins to suffer. Then a Little Girl eager for change journeys to find Old Turtle, seeking the precious piece of wisdom that allows you to mend the people’s broken truth, making it — and them — whole once again.

Douglas Wood’s stirring and eloquent fable, soulfully illustrated in luminous watercolor by Jon J Muth, offers readers of all ages inspiration, hope, and a healing vision of peace.

From the writer of the award-winning legend of peace, Old Turtle, comes a soulful new tale about the wise old turtle who advocates listening to the “language of breezes…learning lessons from stones and animals and trees and stars.” In this story, a truth falls from the stars, breaking in half when it lands. Crow, Fox, Coyote, and Raccoon, each pick up this piece of truth but discard it on account of its rough edges and broken nature. But when a human being finds it, noting the words “You Are Loved” written on it, he and his people cherish it as their most important possession. Time passes, and jealousy, fear, and anger stand up in the people who hold this Great Truth, in addition to in those who don’t have it. The world begins to suffer. After all, it’s up to a little girl to are seeking understanding and a solution to the woes of the world.

Old Turtle and the Broken Truth‘s new age allegory is exquisitely wrought, in word and in picture. Douglas Wood’s prose is the timeless language of fables, meshing perfectly with Jon Muth ‘s radiant watercolors for an experience anyone seven to one hundred and seven can appreciate.
