Review of the "100 Best" Children's Stories from China May 25, 2003
Frank Tung (Wellesley, MA United States)

Both Volume 1 and Volume 2 of the books with the above title are wonderful additions to the many children books that I have read to my children and my grandchildren. The stories will stimulate the minds of youngsters to think creatively and to learn the challenge of solving problems.
Very worthwhile! May 14, 2003

Great reading! Readers learn tradition and history while hearing very intriguing stories which make children (and adults) think. Wonderful way to instill values in children. We need more books like this. Reflecting on what you do and the consequences (positive and negative) are very important to know as you grow up. Looking forward to more stories!

100 Best Children's Stories from China ia perfect book for classroom use. I have found it an excellent resource for my student storytellers. The background information on the stories gives authenticity to the cultural content. When my students need to learn a story for performance, I encourage them to pick short stories with dialogue and interesting characters. This book is well written with intriguing characters,simple language which is easy enough for a young reader to enjoy, and enough plot detail to engage an adult reader. For parents and educators the book provides great read aloud content. Traditional values and cultural wisdom are embedded in the content. The thinking questions can provide a starting place for moral and character education discussions. I am awaiting 100 more stories from the authors.
