Chinese Myths
Chinese Myths features three engrossing myths from the rich culture of ancient China. Wonderful colors evoke the landscape of China, and the gripping text recounts stories of the creation of man, rivers, and the myth of the ten suns. These tales are complemented by an informative compilation of front and back matter.

Book Review--"Saraceni's illustrations demonstrate a high level of craft: the storytelling is always clear, and the layouts and characterizations play off the narration to create emotional resonance."
- Publishers Weekly
Series Review--
"The particular appeal...is the relative unfamiliarity of the selections. The comparatively frank nature of the stories will be the hook for many students...Artistically, the books' covers are distinguished, exhibiting almost lifelike representations from the myths...Action moves quickly and without a lot of extraneous detail. This makes them perfect for reluctant readers...Mesoamerican Myths is the most significant...especially for libraries serving Mexican-American and Central American populations..."
