The Bronze Dog by Li Jian
This beautifully illustrated multicultural children's book tells the story of two young brothers and a magical dog in both English and Chinese.
"The illustrations are meant to look like the ancient stone relief that was popular during the Han DynastyThey are not all that colorful or detailed, but they introduce a bit more of the culture to the reader. I love that the story is in both English and Chinese. The last page of the book shares a bit about the year of the dog and the characteristics that go with those born under the dog. It also explains about the stone relief artwork. The tale itself is simple and short, but the story is a good one with a lesson about love and family." —Crafty Moms Share blog
