Description

|
|
|
Beautifully illustrated in finely drawn watercolors of faded hues, this treasury offers three Chinese folktales for readers and listeners up to 9. In "Auntie Tigress," an ancient tiger who has learned the power of transformation comes down from the mountains to snack on tender children, but doesn't reckon on running into a child as clever as young MeiMei. In "The Fisherman and the Tycoon," a diligent and generous fisherman builds a business and soon finds himself the target of a rich man's jealousy, and in "The Greatest Treasure," a snobbish father finally comes to appreciate his youngest daughter's values of generosity, hard work, and devotion.
