«Il vaso di miele» is the Mayan fable by Rigoberta Menchú and Dante Liano, published by Sperling & Kupfer in hardcover (131 pages, in Italian).
Fable inspired by a Mayan legend about the creation of the world: Mother Earth and Father Sky populate the cosmos with sounds, colors, animals and plants. It gathers stories from the grandparents, as ancient as the world, to be listened to at night by the fire, and presents nature as a sacred space and the harmony of human beings with it.
It belongs to the collection «Continente desaparecido» and was originally published in 2002. The edition includes illustrations in the text.
For young readers aged 6 and up and for those who enjoy Mayan legends and stories about the origin of the world.
