.Chang' e on the Moon by Katrina Moore, illustrated by Cornelia Li, equated by Jaime Chu.I collect photo books that retell beliefs and legend, and I am actually delighted by this beautifully detailed brand-new retelling of the Chinese fallacy "Chang' e on the Moon." Chang' e as well as her other half, Hou Yi, stay in unity and also love one another very much. Hou Yi is a skilled archer, and when excessive sunlight start showing up overhead, the Jade Empress requests Hou Yi's help in shooting them down. Later, he provides Hou Yi a panacea of immortality, however wanting to stay a mortal with his better half, he performs not take it. I love Moore's take on the ending. The end regularly end up with Chang' e taking the elixir and becoming immortal and also lifestyle on the moon, but I like Moore's understanding take on it. Back issue features the tale converted into Chinese. This is a planned set of folktales retold coming from all over the world, and I can not wait to collect all of them all!
