28 May / The Lost Horse: A Chinese Folktale by Ed Young [in AsianWeek]

Lost HorseAn adaptation in English by a mega-award winning author/illustrator, Ed Young, about a Chinese man who owns a magnificent horse, only to lose it, then have it return with a mare by its side. As the story unfolds, one learns that first impressions are not always correct, because what appears to be good is not always, and
what seems to be bad can also be good.

    “Chinese man who owns a magnificent horse, only to lose it”. Sounds like a typical golden goose story in Chinese interpretation with the horse involved. 🙂

      No, not the golden goose story … you’ll have to read it … and you’re sure to enjoy the amazing pictures, too! Ed Young’s art never ever disappoints.
