Nikola-Lisa crafts an original literary folktale for the upper elementary and middle school reader. It is a tale told in the manner of what comparative mythologist Joseph Campbell would call a \"Return of the Hero\" format, with the setting ancient Japan rather than medieval Europe. Told in brief, repetitive, even cryptic episodes, \u003cem\u003eIchiro and the Great Mountain\u003c\/em\u003e follows a young, free-spirited boy through the stages of life as he searches for his true self, making this literary folktale a story of becoming or, in the Buddhist tradition, a story of self-realization and enlightenment. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 42\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.11 x 8 x 5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 24, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAward:\u003c\/strong\u003e Benjamin Franklin Award (2023)\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42718886133823,"sku":"9781734192391","price":19.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/6bef43716eb39bee886d2bfba4b0942f.webp?v=1765083614","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/ichiro-and-the-great-mountain-paperback","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
