A Shelf Awareness Best Book of the Year, and a Junior Library Guide
Selection! From one of China's most beloved, bestselling children's
authors comes this touching story of friendship and empathy, which
celebrates the traditional way of life for the Indigenous Ewenki
peoples of Mongolia. When a Mongolian elder named Gree Shrek hunts
a female moose by mistake, her young calf is left behind. Saddened
by her loss, Gree Shrek names the calf Xiao Han ("Little Moose")
and the moose and man form an authentic attachment. Xiao Han
accompanies Gree Shrek as the hunter-gatherer herds reindeer, sets
up camp, forages for food in the forest, and visits his peoples'
village, where many fun adventures happen. But as the little moose
grows bigger, Gree Shrek knows he must return his companion to the
forest. Richly detailed, painterly illustrations by Chinese fine
artist Jiu'er bring authenticity and beauty to this thoughtful
book, which illuminates the traditional and vanishing way of life
for the Ewenki peoples of Inner Mongolia. An Aldana Libros Book,
