Jangan Lupa - an experiment in cross cultural understanding, the effort of two Norwegian children and Timpaus Indonesian villagers to create meaning in interaction

This book is at one and the same time an anthropologist's selective ethnography of a relatively isolated Indonesian island, the story of a father's skillful efforts to guide his Western children's understanding of its exotic way of life, a perceptive account of the children's gradual creative adaptation to that way of life, and an insightful description of the islander's efforts to facilitate their adaptation. With references.
