A little yak calf is sick. A herb can help. But it only grows in the Himalayan region. That doesn't stop Globi from setting off on the long journey to find the herb.
And so begins a turbulent journey in which Globi is accompanied by the girl Tenzin and dog Tibi.
The three cross very high mountains, wide plateaus, they spend the night with friendly nomads, experience a wild folk festival with fast ponies, gain insight into a monastery. They meet a somewhat sinister shaman and encounter a green-skinned hermit who loves nettles above all else.
High in the mountains, Globi gets altitude sickness. In delirium, eerie figures appear to him ...
For Tenzin, Globi visits the Dalai Lama on his way home. The two
make a surprising discovery.
An adventurous, funny story, with surprises, that once again takes children to another world and lets them learn a lot about it.
