Abstract: en_US This book comes from the same series as The Proud Peacock and the Mallard, which was also done by Dharma in 1976 with an Emeryville address. Since then Dharma has had addresses first in Oakland and then in Berkeley. A childless king adopts three birds: an owl, a mynah, and a parrot. When he dies, the king turns his kingdom over to the wise parrot Jambuka, but Jambuka (who turns out to have been the Buddha) refuses rule and leaves the kingdom to the administration of the king's ministers, since he knows that they can rule well without him. These illustrations are less striking than many of Dharma's, I believe. I notice that I now have eleven of Dharma's Jataka Tale books.
