Book cover The Paper Dragon
Marguerite W. Davol (1997) , under 40 pages
Illustrated by Robert Sabuda
Audience: Preschool, Primary (k-3rd grade)
Category: Adventure, Fantasy, Multicultural
(This book has outstanding illustrations)


Mi Fei, a humble painter, likes his simple quiet life. But all this changes when he is chosen to combat the mighty dragon Sui Jen, who is destroying villages everywhere. Through fold-out pages filled with bright, expressive illustrations, we watch as Mi Fei trys to outwit the fearless dragon. The illustrations, made from cut and painted tissue paper, vibrantly tell this Chinese tale. An exciting and visually appealing story that should not be missed.
