(4) K-3 Accompanied by lively illustrations, this bilingual English/Japanese text tells of Tokuzo, a poor toymaker, and his kindness to an injured cat. When Tokuzo is rescued by the cat's spirit after its death, he creates a beckoning cat statue to pass on his good fortune. Without any source documentation, it's difficult to know how much of the interesting tale has been invented by the reteller-illustrator. Glos.
