**Winner of Creative Child Magazine 2015 Book of the Year Award**
**Winner of Moonbeam Children's Book Awards 2015 Gold Medal** This
colorfully illustrated multicultural children's book presents
Vietnamese fairy tales and other folk stories--providing insight
into a rich literary culture. Vietnamese Children's Favorite
Stories is a charming collection of fifteen tales as told by
prominent storyteller Tran Thi Minh Phuoc. In it, Tran--Minnesota's
first Vietnamese librarian and an active member of the
Vietnamese-American community--recounts cherished folktales such as
"The Story of Tam and Cam" (the Vietnamese version of Cinderella),
"The Jade Rabbit," and "The Legend of the Mai Flower." They make
perfect new additions for story time or bedtime reading. With
beautiful illustrations by veteran artists Nguyen Thi Hop and
Nguyen Dong, children and adults alike will be enchanted by Tran's
English retellings. Stories in which integrity, hard work and a
kind heart triumph over deception, laziness, and greed--as gods,
peasants, kings and fools spring to life in legends of bravery and
beauty, and fables about nature. The Children's Favorite Stories
series was created to share the folktales and legends most beloved
by children in the East with young readers of all backgrounds in
the West. Vietnamese Children's Favorite Stories will keep
Vietnam's folktales alive for them and the legions of young readers
who enjoy multicultural children's books and stories set in faraway
lands. Other multicultural children's books in this series include:
Asian Children's Favorite Stories, Indian Children's Favorite
Stories, Indonesian Children's Favorite Stories, Japanese
Children's Favorite Stories, Singapore Children's Favorite Stories,
Filipino Favorite Children's Stories, Favorite Children's Stories
from China & Tibet, Chinese Children's Favorite Stories, Korean
