04 Mar / The Night Visitors by Ed Young [in What Do I Read Next? Multicultural Literature]
Ho Kuan is ordered by his father to seal the storehouse or he will flood it to kill the ants who have stolen the grain. That night, Ho’s dreams take him on a journey through the ant kingdom, teaching him deep respect for all forms of life. The ants, in turn, lead Ho to a solution.
Based on an ancient Chinese folktale which dates back to the 6th century.
