Download or read book Yoga Tales written by Nisha Arya and published by . This book was released on 2015-04-15 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: People in ancient India lived in harmony with animals. This is obvious from the Panchatantra (pronounced as Pancha - tan - tra) tales, ancient animal fables that originated in India around 3rd century BCE. These stories, passed down by word of mouth for generations, show that people in ancient India observed animal behavior closely and each animal was given a human character based on its unique characteristics. The cow is seen as a "giver of life" because it provides milk. The monkey is regarded as clever and loyal and is also worshipped as the monkey god Hanuman. The cobra and the lion are feared but are also worshipped to prevent them from causing harm to humans. Many yoga poses are named after animals. Though there is no historical evidence that yoga poses were inspired by the Panchatantra tales, the prominent role that both the Panchatantra and yoga play in Indian life and culture have inspired me to link each Yoga pose named after an animal to a Panchatantra tale about the same animal. If you are an animal and yoga lover, I hope that that you will enjoy practicing these animal yoga poses and reading their stories. If animals or yoga are not your thing, I hope you will read the stories to find out why people in ancient India were so fascinated by animals and how they became a part of their lives and legend.

Book excerpt: "Direct and charming."—Publishers Weekly Cynthia Weill’s book of Mexican folk art teaches kids about opposites in Spanish and English! These whimsical little animals from Oaxaca, carved and painted by hand, make learning about opposites fun. Up and down, tall and short, left and right—all inside a beautiful book. En este libro de artesanía mexicana, Cynthia Weill le enseña a niños sobre opuestos en español e ingles! Estos animalitos fantasiosos de Oaxaca, tallados y pintados a mano, hacen aprender sobre opuestos divertido. Arriba y abajo, alto y pequeño, izquierda y derecha—todo adentro de un libro encantador. "This second work by one of the authors of ABeCedarios (2007) follows its predecessor's highly praised concept and design. Pages on the left side introduce children to a word in English and Spanish, as pages on the right side present its opposite: Asleep/Dormido (a spotted dog snoozes)/AwakeDespierto (the same dog, eyes wide open and tail sticking up). "Concepts are illustrated with photographs of unique hand-painted animal carvings created individually by Oaxacan artists Quirino and Martin Santiago. The contrast between the text colors and the bright background combines with the imaginary dialogue that children can establish with the vivacious folk-art figures to make this bilingual edition another outstanding entry in the First Concepts with Mexican Folk Art series. On some pages an external element-a sun or a moon, for instance-expands on such concepts as Day/Día and Night/Noche. "A great selection for bilingual storytimes at preschools, elementary schools and public libraries. As a work of art, its display will enhance art exhibits and cultural programs as part of Hispanic Heritage Month or Children's Day/Book Day celebrations." —Kirkus Reviews
