.Chang' e on the Moon through Katrina Moore, illustrated through Cornelia Li, translated by Jaime Chu.I collect photo manuals that retell misconceptions and also folklore, and also I am thrilled through this beautifully detailed brand-new retelling of the Mandarin misconception "Chang' e on the Moon." Chang' e and also her hubby, Hou Yi, reside in peace and passion each other dearly. Hou Yi is a professional bishop, as well as when way too many suns start appearing overhead, the Jade Emperor asks for Hou Yi's support in firing them down. Thereafter, he provides Hou Yi an elixir of eternal life, yet would like to keep a temporal with his other half, he carries out not take it. I like Moore's take on the ending. Completion regularly winds up along with Chang' e taking the elixir and becoming immortal and also lifestyle on the moon, however I really love Moore's compassionate take on it. Back matter features the story converted into Mandarin. This is actually an organized series of folktales retold coming from around the world, and also I can not hang around to accumulate all of them all!
