Children's & YAMarch 2018Legend of Nancun
by TANG Sulan
Legend of Nancun is the latest long fairy tale created by Tang Sulan, a famous children literature writer. Stories in the book all happen in a place called “Nancun”.

Different from Never Land, a place inhabited by children only, Nancun is a paradise on the Earth, where humans, animals, spirits and immortals can live together.) Some animals in forests of Nancun are very special. They like dressing themselves in the way humans do. Some of them can even cultivate their vital energy to become immortal. Stories of these animals are intertwined with those of humans in Nancun to form the Legend of Nancun. The book consists of four separate but interconnected beautiful and imaginary stories, including Sheshen Stone, Teenager and Boa, Fox Son-in-Law, and Grandma Ding.

The Violaceous Amethyst
by Lennon-Ritchie, Aoife
Aoife Lennon-Ritchie, literary agent and author, brings out the first title in her humorous Viking-fantasy teen series, A Viking Legend: The Violaceous Amethyst. This winter, siblings Ruairi and Dani Miller visit their grandmother in the legendary Viking island of Yondersaay. In less than twenty-four hours of their arrival, Ruairi is mistaken for the lost Boy King of Denmark, kidnapped by Vikings, and scheduled to be sacrificed at sundown. Granny isn’t very pleased. But when they are the only ones in town who fail to go “Viking,” the three turn to Granny’s extremely epic tales of the legends of Yondersaay, The Gifts of Odin, and King Dudo the Mightily Impressive for clues. But not all stories end happily, and Ruari, Dani, and Granny will have to write their own happy ending if things are to return to normal. The Princess Bride meets Vikings in this enchanted tale of high adventure, buried treasure, villainous treachery, violent ends, and true love.
