Wrestlers of the Grassland

An extraordinary book about courage and perseverance inspired by the cultural heritage of Mongolian wrestling. For sheep lifters and animal tamers ages 6 years and up.

Every day, they gather: the wrestlers of the grassland. With arms of steel and bodies malleable like clay, they compete on the open plain. Anand also wants to become one of those brave warriors. He practices from dusk till dawn, for an entire year. He runs with horses, calms a raging bull, dances like an eagle in the snow . . . And then, one day, it's time to measure his strength.

This award-winning story, honored with the golden medal in the Key Colours China Competition 2021, captures the strength, dedication and tradition of a timeless sport. This inspiring tale teaches young readers resilience and tradition.
