Clear Sky, Red Earth: A Himalayan Story, by Sienna Craig, tells a story of life in Dolpo through the eyes of Namsel, a young girl who lived in dolpo several centuries ago, and who grows up to be a great painter. Tenzin Norbu, the artist whose paintings illustrate this book, comes from a long lineage of Dolpo painters. He is known for his illustrations in other children's books including Himalaya (also a movie) and Secret of the Snow Leopard. A portion of the sale of this book goes to support grassroots development projects in the Himalaya.
