The Magic Night of Molly Majidae - Journey of a Decorator Crab (Paperback)

This poetic story on finding joy is perfect for adults and children. Over 30 bright watercolour illustrations and the jovial use of rhyme create a book that communicates light and life and a real message. It is a book on enlightenment -- finding that higher truth. It is the story of a Decorator Crab burdened by the need and result of continuous gathering: it parallels the modern plight of so many humans. Molly Majidae, the main character, attempts to bolster herself by comparing, competing, adding, masking and camouflaging herself, only to discover this path leads to ultimate loneliness and emptiness. In her darkest hour, she realises that releasing her cloak and obsession for possessions allows the joy to penetrate the shell in which she has hidden and suffered.
