Brilliant watercolor and pastel paintings in the style of 18th-century Japanese woodcuts illuminate this engaging retelling of a popular Japanese folktale. Coveting a mandarin duck for his magnificent plumage, a greedy lord captures and cages him for all to admire. But the wild creature pines for his mate. When Yasuko, the kitchen maid, releases the bird against the lord1s command, she and the one-eyed servant, Shozo, are sentenced to death. How the grateful drake and his mate return the loving couple1s kindness and outsmart the capricious lord makes for a wondrous outcome. Illustrators Leo and Diane Dillon, winners of numerous awards, including the Caldecott Medal, studied ukiyo-e, a type of Japanese art. A wise and beautiful book. Reinforced binding.
