5.0 out of 5 stars
A gentle tale artfully presented with illustrations loosely reminiscent of traditional Japanese artwork.,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Paper Dragonfly (Hardcover)
The Paper Dragonfly is a simple children's picturebook set in feudal Japan. A young boy named Kiyoshi loves making paper lanterns far more than learning the practical skills of farming; fascinated by dragonflies, he crafts a wondrous paper dragonfly lamp that glides virtually of its own accord. When his lamp accidentally starts a fire, the boy is despondent - but the lamp's beauty, as well as its danger, has attracted Imperial attention, and the Emperor himself desires the boy's services as the best lampmaker in the land! A gentle tale artfully presented with illustrations loosely reminiscent of traditional Japanese artwork.
