Recenzii
"…Chinese Myths and Legends is a delightful collection of seven classic Chinese stories that make great reading adventures…this mesmerizing book includes myths of creation, mortality, and love. More than just a children's storybook, Chinese Myths and Legends also explores the historical impact and roots of each tale, inviting young readers who love to enjoy the many layers of meaning contained within them fully. Chinese Myths and Legends also features a pronunciation guide, as well as information for further reading, making this a perfect tool for educators, librarians, and parents." --Midwest Book Review
"The [illustration] style is in keeping with traditional Chinese paintings, while at the same time using a more modern colour palette of pastels and jewel-tones. There is a mystical feel to the illustrations with their curves, stars, and sparkles…" --Castle View Academy blog
"This is a great book for a home library, a class library and a public library for young world citizens." --Miss Panda Chinese blog
