Synopsis

In Why We Are in Need of Tails, Huk and Tuk explain why reading tales to each other is so important.

In Why We Are in Need of Tales, Huk and Tuk explore intriguing questions that arise from their discussions of six different picture books written by Arnold Lobel and Leo Lionni.

Is something ever truly mine alone?

How do we come to know what we don't know?

What makes a friend a friend?

These and many more questions take us on a journey through the world of Huk and Tuk.

Doing philosophy with children inspired Maria daVenza Tillmanns to recreate the bonds of meaningful communication in the writing of her whimsical, playful stories. Philosophy should make us - children and adults - re-think what we think we know.
