This review is from: The Ghost Fox (Paperback)

While helping his father load the family boat, Little Lee accidently bumps into a stranger. As the story goes on, the stranger turns out to be a "ghost fox," a nefarious spiritual threat to Little Lee's mother. Little Lee must figure out where the threat is coming from and then what to do in spite of many obstacles. Ultimately, Little Lee saves the day. This is a great story introducing kids to a bit of Chinese lore and culture. The story is exciting and fast-paced; a story that children will enjoy.
