The Yin-Yang Sisters and the Dragon Frightful

Praise

“The prose riffs satisfyingly on folklore conventions; readers and listeners will especially appreciate the repeated refrain: ‘Still, they were sisters. They stuck together.’ Offermann’s stirring pen-and-ink-and-watercolor illustrations create a deeply textured world, moving seamlessly from breathtaking vistas to intimate close-ups. . . Visually delightful.” –Kirkus Reviews

“An empowering tale set in Ancient China with broad appeal. . . Offermann’s art is culturally sound and striking in its depiction of the villagers’ dress and the beauty of the rice terraces. Her use of pencil and glazing add a softness to the beautifully proportioned spreads, inviting eyes to linger. . . Expertly crafted, in both word and form, this tale feels old and new and will be gobbled up by kids.” –School Library Journal
