Told by Donna Jacobs Sife, music by Llew Kiek, artwork by Jean Hartman. These are some of her best stories, developed over the years, for children from 8 to adult, held together by one story The Blind Man and the Bird. This story gives context to the stories it holds within it, through the conversation between one wise, blind man, and his younger brother-in-law. Their relationship develops as the stories unfold, and the listener is able to witness the process of understanding that occurs between them, whilst being entranced by stories from different traditions, that have taught us all the secrets of humanity since the beginning of time.
Llew Kiek is an accomplished musician, composer, musical director and producer, and is regarded as one of the key contributors to 'World Music' in Australia, and in 1999 World Music Instrumentalist of the Year.
