Right. So...I really liked this book quite a bit. Except that it really made me mad a lot of the time. I kept thinking, "Aw. Good. Now i can like the main charactor." And then he'd do something stupid again, and i'd be mad at him all over again. Totally stereotypical old Asian man. Gr. But. I really loved O-Lan. I'd love to read a whole book written from her point of view.
This is an interesting take on a Nigerian folktale about the sun and moon. We just happen to be reading other books about the solar system and astronomy right now, so it started an interesting discussion about how this is a folktale and would be impossible to have happened in real life. The illustrations are soft watercolors and are fun to look at.
