Sis’s deeply felt version of the classic twelfth-century Persian epic poem tells the story of a flock of birds in search of the true king, Simorgh, who lives on the mountain of Kaf. Drawn from all species, the flock travels through the seven valleys: quest, love, understanding, detachment, unity, amazement, and death. The birds that endure reach the mountain to learn a profound lesson: that Simorgh the king is, in fact, each of them and all of them.\u003cb\u003ePeter Sis\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of more than twenty books and the seven-time recipient of the \u003ci\u003eNew York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e's Best Illustrated Book of the Year award.
