An original story and cautionary tale about the first Komodo Dragon on earth. Born with beautiful colors, patterns, shapes and a crown, portrayed in a style inspired by the age-old Indonesian shadow puppet tradition of Wayang Kulit, Kraken-ka is transformed into his present day form after his creator, Naga, the Goddess of Wisdom and Beauty, gives him three chances to learn to take from the earth only what he needs. An accompanying Performing Arts CD contains puppets patterns, a script, and poster for children to create their own show about the story, plus parent/teacher educational materials that meet national education standards in mathematics, art and social studies.
