Sea Tale

By Richard Lewis
Illustrated by Gigi Alvaré
Designed by Heidi Neilson
Touchstone Center Publications, 2009

Sea Tale is a mythic retelling of how children first found the purpose of their playing. Evocatively and subtly illustrated by Gigi Alvaré, Sea Tale takes place in a prehistoric world in which dreams and reality intertwine, a seascape of nature’s timeless unfoldings in which children discover how their desire to play – is also their desire to survive. Sea Tale is a parable for anyone who seeks the meaning of our humanness and its roots in childhood.

….a mythic retelling of how children first found the purpose of their play – simply a piece of art.
