      • Fox Hatches an Egg
        Children's & YA

        Fox Hatches an Egg

        by Sun Chyng-Feng, Nan Jun

        A hungry fox finds a beautiful duck’s egg, but would rather eat a tasty little duck, so he becomes a super-nanny, and waits patiently for the egg to hatch.     Fox is so hungry he can hardly move. He chances upon a beautiful smooth duck’s egg. He is just about to crack it open and eat it, when a thought occurs to him: “If I hatch the egg, I’ll be able to eat a tasty little duck!” So he takes the egg with him when he goes walking, and even takes it to bed with him. Over time, the egg becomes his friend. Then, one day, Fox is woken by a strange noise. He notices a little hole in the top of the egg, and sees a little duck’s beak pecking away at the hole…   Fox Hatches an Egg has been a classic in the Taiwanese children’s book world for twenty years. Reminiscent of Aesop’s fables, Sun Chyng-feng’s story depicts with humour the relationship between Fox and the little duck, but turns the old-style fox-as-villain story into one with warmth and kindness. The new illustrations by Nan Jun are full of autumnal colour and atmosphere and are cleverly constructed, making this a wonderful reinterpretation of a classic.

        The Oviraptor

        by Leo Tang

        Watch out for the Oviraptor, the dinosaur that steals eggs and oval things! If it smells wee, it will sniff out the boy who wet the bed, and steal his balls. Didi hates wearing a nappy at night, and is determined not to let that happen.     Didi often wets his bed, but he doesn’t like going to the toilet at bed-time, and he hates the feel of a wet nappy. One day, reading a book with Mum, he sees a picture of an oviraptor, a dinosaur that steals eggs and oval things, runs faster than the wind, and never comes home empty-handed. Didi checks his balls, and grows more and more worried that the Oviraptor will sniff him out. What if it steals his balls? Didi is determined not to let the Oviraptor get its claws on them!    The story of the Oviraptor was inspired by the experience of the author’s son. This cute, reassuring story encourages very young children to overcome their fears. It shows them that it’s better to face difficult things than to turn away from them. And that when the problem is solved, they know they have learned something and can be proud of what they have achieved!

        The Crow and the Cherry Blossom

        by Ni Shao

        The crow and the cherry blossom meet at the beginning of spring, and part at the end of spring. In the shortest of friendships, each learns to appreciate the other’s beauty, and a beautiful memory is created.     Spring has come. When the crow wakes and opens his eyes, he discovers that the cherry blossom throughout the town has opened too – all except one little bud, which is still sleeping. He waits patiently for the bud to unfurl and flower. After a thunderstorm, the crow’s feathers are soaked through, but the cherry blossom is still intact. In the quiet of early morning, the crow tells the cherry blossom about his dream. He looks forward to meeting him again next spring. But can that really happen?   The Crow and the Cherry Blossom is an elegant and poetic picture book. The gentle narrative style and the detailed pencil drawings offer a calm and comforting reading experience. Crow is black, Cherry Blossom is pink. One moves, one is still. The crow and the cherry blossom are so different, yet they gradually open up to each other, and enjoy a friendship that is short, but deep.

        The Secret of Zheng He’s Voyages to the West

        by Lee Ru-Qing

        Over 600 years ago, in the Ming dynasty, Zheng He’s fleet prepared to sail to the west. A young carpenter called -Wu was excited to be part of this grand undertaking. He thought he’d just be hammering and chiselling, a tiny screw in the whole project, but thanks to a packet of seeds from his grandfather he came to play a much larger role.     Over 600 years ago, before Magellan and Columbus set sail, the Chinese admiral Zheng He led an enormous fleet of ships into the southern seas. A carpenter called Wu was excited to be part of the plans. Although his job was to help build the ships, he dreamed of climbing on board and going to sea. He worked hard every day, but still found time to follow his grandfather’s instructions – to plant the seeds he had brought with him, and grow vegetables that tasted of home. Wu never expected that doing something as small as planting seeds would bring about great changes for the fleet!   For a grand undertaking, when everyone must do what they do best, and everyone has a specific role, a tiny idea can have a massive impact. After consulting old texts and visiting historical remains, Lee Ru-Qing has written the glorious history of Zheng He’s voyage in a completely new way – from the perspective of a lowly carpenter. Instead of writing about the ambitions of emperors and dignitaries, he shows the wisdom of a young carpenter, and how the astonishing power of seeds made the dream of conquering the oceans come true.
