This story combines traditional themes that have been hanging around for centuries like a pile of dusty old bones. Stone Village is a re-telling of these themes, woven together and re-told in an attempt to breathe new life into them, and make them relevant to the twenty first century. New layers and dimensions have been added, and new directions followed, to create a simple folk tale about food and human relationships, that aims to inspire children to think about the things that really matter.
It is a story for adults to read to children, and a story for older children to read for themselves. This is a story to inspire children, and to touch their hearts and souls with stories imbued with meaning and hope, so that they might just grow into adults for whom there is more to life than visiting theme parks and fiddling with smart phones.
And like all good stories it has a happy ending …
