Paper Lanterns

(4) K-3 Lantern craftsman Old Chen worries that there will be no one to replace him--then along comes a boy called Little Mouse. Set in modern China, the story captures an evolving friendship and teacher-disciple relationship. The illustrations' cartoonlike characters detract from the text's gentle subtlety, but the bright colors and bold outlines are suitably reminiscent of the lantern designs.
