In Search of the Thunder Dragon

by Romio Shrestha (Illustrator)

In Search of the Thunder Dragon brings to life the beauty and traditions of Bhutan in the ancient story of the Thunder Dragons that play hide-and-seek in the clouds during big winter storms. Amber and her cousin Tashi long to see the Thunder Dragons, and they set off on a journey of discovery that takes them from an elaborate monastery to the top of the mountains, a place called the Tiger's Nest, and on to the back of a tiger with eagle's wings. In this beautiful adventure the children pursue their dream and find what they sought, unravelling the mysteries of Buddha along the way.
