 Something I'd want to have for my own collection August 17, 2007
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Mingmei Yip is an excellent writer--very engaging. And her illustrations are very colorful and eye-catching as well. I was looking for books to introduce Chinese culture to my young nieces, nephews, and cousins, and I can definitely recommend this one. I couldn't put it down myself, late one night! I had checked out a slew of books from the library, but only some met my criteria of excellent writing and good pictures. Some had one or the other: this one had BOTH. I don't give anything I wouldn't want myself...I sure wish I had this when I was growing up! Adults can enjoy this, too.
Beautiful Tales for Children and Adults. June 28, 2007
I buy a lot of books for my daughter about many different cultures and this is one of our favourites. Well written and entertaining for adults and children.
story collection June 14, 2007
This is an excellent selection of stories that are a good way to bridge the culture for children in this country. I particularly thought the monkey story was a good choice since he is an important character in Chinese culture.
