Seven Chinese Sisters

The saturated colors of their blue dresses, green trees, and the red scooter and dragon create sufficient tension for the story and keep pace with the liveliness of the action. There's a playfulness in the text as well when Fourth Sister talks to the dragon in dog language. An entertaing feminist twist not be confused with the original. Good old-fashioned storytelling distinguishes Tucker's thoroughly engaging tale of courage, individual talent, and teamwork....Lin expertly captures the drama and humor of the story with delightful paintings that reveal lovely Chinese landscapes and a quirky, not-too-scary dragon. A wonderful readaloud. An entertaining feminist twist not to be confused with the orignal. Kirkus Reviews A wonderful readaloud. Booklist
