This is a fascinating look at village life in China in the early 1920s - after the fall of the emperor but well before the Communists started making serious advances. Various warlords and revolutionary groups confuse the villagers, but they (mostly) had the wit to accept each new set of slogans. Their total incomprehension of the rhetoric from each group (which is never explained to them - they are expected to just accept it), but their understanding of the need to mouth it, ring very true.

This book did not receive any awards. This book would be good for 1st grader, 2nd graders and 3rd graders because the context of the story is simple enough so they can all understand it, but the different grades will be able to do different lessons with it. Bawshou Rescues the Sun is a Chinese folk tale about how the sun was stolen by the devil. The sun was taken by the devil when Bawshou was still in his mother's womb and his father went on a journey with a golden phoenix to take back the sun and bring it back to China. The father was unsuccessful and died on his mission and a star was made for him in the sky for his wife to see. When Bawshou was born he didn't grow up like a normal child, he became a man in a matter of 5 minutes. He then went on the same mission that his father went on and he was determined to succeed. He went through the ringer of obstacles, but he eventually made it to the devil's cave and he fought off the demons and brought back the sun for China. And as the myth goes every sunrise that has a pinkish tint to it is because the golden phoenix is flying by it and there is a star next to the rising sun and that's Bawshou's father. This story deals with adversity, setting a goal and seeing it through, and good verse evil. For 1st graders I would read the book to them and let them see all the great illustrations. Then they will come up with their own folk tales in groups and they will act out their folk tales to the class. The second graders will read it with me and we will talk about similes and metaphor and i would have them write their own similes and metaphors and then draw a picture of what they wrote down. The Third graders will come up with their own folk tale that is similar to this one and they will write it down in a little paragraph.… (mehr)
