Yokki and the Parno Gry

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Marieke Nelissen. A traditional tale portrays the resilience of the Romani, or Travelers, of England. Yokki is a storyteller (like the Romani author O'Neill), and he relates the story of the Parno Gry, a white horse that carries a whole family from an impoverished place to a land of rich resources. Soft paintings complement the story, which includes a note on Traveler culture. Glos.
