AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Japanese folklore is full of stories about the tengu, magical beings who grant wishes to those who ask them. But watch out–wishes don't always turn out as you expected!

'In this lively, engaging retelling of two fantastic tengu tales, Duncan Ball introduces young readers to the folk world of old Japan, while David Allan's beautiful illustrations set an atmosphere inspired by classic Japanese art.' (Publication summary)
