The Golden Rule Through the Lemurs of Madagascar (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781946195845)

Story of Lemurs

We shall look at the lemurs of Madagascar to help us learn more about the importance of the Golden Rule. Lemurs are small primates, like monkeys but smaller, and have many characteristics like human beings. The name lemur means roving spirit, which is akin to the animal's character of roving the forests from tree to tree in full happiness.These gorgeous animals are found only on the island of Madagascar, which is located on the southeastern side of Africa. The only other place one can see lemurs is at the zoo. Like human beings that are of many races, lemurs come in many different species. Similarly, they live in extended families, just like humans live with their family. Below, we explore several ways that lemurs can help us learn and apply the Golden Rule in our day-to-day lives.
