Discover one of Indonesia's most beloved legends!

Deep in the beautiful mountains of West Java lives the story of Sangkuriang, a brave and determined young man whose journey becomes intertwined with mystery, family, magic, and fate.

When Sangkuriang returns to the land of his childhood, he meets the beautiful Dayang Sumbi without realizing the truth about their past. Soon, an impossible challenge is set: build a great lake and an enormous boat before sunrise.

With magical helpers at work and dawn approaching, one extraordinary night changes the landscape forever-giving rise to the legend of Mount Tangkuban Perahu, the overturned boat.

This beautifully illustrated children's book also introduces young readers to West Java, Sundanese culture, the characters behind the legend, and the natural landscape that inspired this famous folktale.

Perfect for children who enjoy:
