This was one I went ahead and bought on the recommendation of Memoria Press Junior Kindergarten. It is a lovely type of illustration that seems unique to Demi and they are fabulous to look at. This is an interesting little story about honesty. I think it will be a very good read for our shelves and I look forward to sharing it with my daughter when we come to it as a read aloud. After enjoying this one we went ahead and got a few more from the library as well including [b:The Greatest Power 630595 The Greatest Power Demi https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1375646604l/630595.SX50.jpg 616915] a sequel in a way to [b:The Empty Pot 332575 The Empty Pot Demi https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1383352880l/332575.SX50.jpg 2600034] and [b:The Boy Who Painted Dragons 2017062 The Boy Who Painted Dragons Demi https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1348233515l/2017062.SX50.jpg 2021367] another story about a boy named Ping, but perhaps a different Ping. -2012 We read this again today. So lovely. This time to my Rascal (5), Princess (8), and Mermaid Warrior (2.5). Even my AppleBlossom (10) was listening from the other room and remembering this story. A great addition to our China study with Beautiful Feet Books Around the World with Picture Books Volume 1. We love Demi and I wish I could have more of her books around.
