Eating the Liver of the Earth

By Theresa Fuller

Sang Kancil, the mousedeer: trickster, adventurer, king and sometimes villain and thief-the traditional folktales from South-East Asia about this diminutive hero have been told for centuries. He might be small, but through cunning and intelligence, he always prevails against powerful enemies while saving his friends from danger.

Theresa Fuller has researched many mousedeer stories and in this book, brings new insights into the age-old tales and by using her own modern adaptions combined with her lyrical prose, the mousedeer's adventures will be sure to delight audiences hitherto unfamiliar with Sang Kancil.
