With beautiful illustrations by veteran artists Nguyen Thi Hop and Nguyen Dong, children and adults alike will be enchanted by Tran's English retellings. Stories in which integrity, hard work and a kind heart triumph over deception, laziness, and greedâ€”as gods, peasants, kings and fools spring to life in legends of bravery and beauty, and fables about nature.
