Very Kind Rich Lady & Her One Hundred Do by Lee Chinlun
Imagine having one hundred dogs like the very kind rich lady in this book. Imagine brushing and feeding them all. Imagine playing with them all. And then, tired at the end of the day, imagine going home to bed surrounded by each and every one of them! With one hundred names to remember and one hundred bowls to wash up, it takes a very kind and very rich lady to look after them all!
"Splendid.. a hugely enjoyable challenge to any child just into reading." Literacy and Learning; "Marvellous for children to join in with the counting! The deceptively simple text is joyfully interpreted by witty pictures, giving lots to talk about." Carousel
Chinlun Lee grew up in Taipei, Taiwan, and was inspired to draw by her father, who was an art teacher. She studied illustration in England and graduated from the Royal College of Art in 1999. It was there that she had the idea for The Very Kind Rich Lady and Her One Hundred Dogs. The story is based on a woman she remembers from her childhood in Taipei who had over two hundred adopted stray dogs. Chinlun says, "I visited her house once and could never forget how many dogs' faces were looking at me through one big window." Chinlun Lee lives in Kaoshung, southern Taiwan, with her vet husband and their six dogs.
