He was a teacher, a patriot of his country, who wanted to tell the world about his people - Kazakhs. During his life he was gathering this valuable material and compiling it into his books. The first one "Traditions and Customs of Kazakhs" was published in Kazakhstan in Russian. Then it was translated into English and Kazakh and republished by me - Dana Zheteyeva. The idea of translating the book was expressed to me by my mother. She was a good friend of Yerkebulan Dzhelbuldin. Eventually, I translated it into English and my father translated it into Kazakh. Today this three-lingual book is sold in various book stores in Kazakhstan. I am still working on translation of the two other books - "Great thinkers of Kazakh Steppe" and "The Silk Road". Also, I translated and published our Kazakh Fairy tales. The first book is called "Fairy Stories from Kazakhstan" and you can find it at the authorhouse website or on my web page www.kazakhstanfairytales.co.ukview less
