Book Little Red Riding Hood and the Dragon

Download or read book Little Red Riding Hood and the Dragon written by Ying Chang Compestine and published by Abrams. This book was released on 2022-11-01 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Award-winning author Ying Compestine reimagines the classic fairy tale "Little Red Riding Hood" from a Chinese perspective By now, you have probably heard the old folk tale about a girl in a red cape. The truth is that the story took place here in China, there wasn’t a woodsman, and I, the gentle wolf, certainly was not the one who ate them. Here is the real story. This is not the story you think you know. In this version of the classic fairy tale, Little Red lives in a village near the Great Wall and trains in kung fu. When she ventures to her grandmother’s to deliver rice cakes and herbal medicine, she encounters something much more fearsome than a wolf—a mighty dragon. With her wits and a sword in hand, Little Red must valiantly defend herself and her grandmother in this vibrant retelling from Ying Chang Compestine and Joy Ang. An author’s note discusses how this reimagining is influenced by Chinese mythology, symbolism, traditional medicine, and other elements of Compestine’s heritage.

Book Little Red

    Book Details:
  • Author : Bethan Woollvin
  • Publisher : Pan Macmillan
  • Release : 2022-06-09
  • ISBN : 1509829652
  • Pages : 33 pages

Download or read book Little Red written by Bethan Woollvin and published by Pan Macmillan. This book was released on 2022-06-09 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A witty twist on a favourite fairy tale, Little Red was a New York Times Best Illustrated Children's Book. The perfect gift for fairy tale fans of all ages, complete with tree-shaped cover flaps, and bright, bold colours that make this a sumptuous sight to behold. Little Red Riding Hood meets a wolf on her way through the woods to visit her sick grandmother. The wolf is hungry, and Red Riding Hood looks tasty, so he hatches a dastardly plan, gobbles up Grandma and lies in wait. So far, so familiar. But this Little Red Riding Hood is not easily fooled, and this big bad wolf better watch his back. In this defiant interpretation of the traditional tale, the cheeky, brave little girl seizes control of her own story (and the wolf gets rather more than he bargained for). Printed using rich pantone colours, the graphic illustrations in Little Red offer a bold, visually arresting interpretation of the classic Little Red Riding Hood story, by Bethan Woollvin, the winner of The Macmillan Prize for Illustration.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A wolf desperate for freedom. A headstrong spy running from her past. A love they cannot deny. Shin’s life has lost all meaning as he spends endless days patrolling his cruel master’s domain. When he catches a wolf spy, on reckless impulse, he lets her go. But then his master surprises him by allowing him to leave the forest for the first time in centuries, but in exchange for temporary freedom, he must recapture the spy and if he fails, he’ll be locked in solitude for eternity. A fate worse than death. While seeking missing priestesses, Akane met Shin, and their brief exchange awakens the wolf inside her. Ever since she lost control of it, she’s suppressed that side of her and tried to live as a human. She planned to bury it again, but Shin reappears, in disguise, tempting her wolf and her heart. Akane can’t risk losing control. If she does, she’ll endanger everyone she loves. Then kidnappers take her sister, and only Shin knows where. Caught in an uneasy alliance, they set out together. However, they find it impossible to deny their growing attraction. If Akane is willing to trust Shin, he can help her tame the raging beast inside her, but can love save Shin from eternal damnation or will he sacrifice himself to protect Akane?

Book When Women Held the Dragon s Tongue

Download or read book When Women Held the Dragon s Tongue written by Hermann Rebel and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2010 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Peasants tell tales," one prominent cultural historian tells us (Robert Darnton). Scholars must then determine and analyze what it is they are saying and whether or not to incorporate such tellings into their histories and ethnographies. Challenging the dominant culturalist approach associated with Clifford Geertz and Marshall Sahlins among others, this book presents a critical rethinking of the philosophical anthropologies found in specific histories and ethnographies and thereby bridges the current gap between approaches to studies of peasant society and popular culture. In challenging the methodology and theoretical frameworks currently used by social scientists interested in aspects of popular culture, the author suggests a common discursive ground can be found in an historical anthropology that recognizes how myths, fairytales and histories speak to a universal need for imagining oneself in different timescapes and for linking one's local world with a "known" larger world.

She's also aware her brother has invited one of his friends to attend an ill-conceived séance. She didn't count on that friend being so handsome...and she certainly didn't expect him to be a dragon. Younger son of a family of shapeshifting dragons, Highlander Colin MacAlasdair has lived a life free of both family duty and mortal cares. Moving in and out of human society as he wishes, he takes very little seriously—until Regina drops onto his balcony one midnight, catching his attention and his interest. She's like no mortal he's ever met, and no matter how hard he tries, he can't seem to get her out of his head. Bound by circumstance, drawn by the fire awakening inside of them, Colin and Regina must work together to defeat a vengeful spirit—and discover whether their growing love is powerful enough to defy convention.
