Here, from China, is a gorgeous story about generosity and gratitude, adapted from a traditional Buddhist tale by Kailin Duan. Her illustration style evokes artwork contemporary to the story's origins more than a thousand years ago, found in the famous Mogao caves, (located at a religious and cultural crossroads on the Silk Road, in Gansu province, China.)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe story begins deep in the Kunlun Hills with a legendary deer whose fur has nine colors. One day she hears a cry for help and rescues a drowning man. When the man asks how he could ever repay this kindness, the Nine Color Deer simply requests that the man never reveal her whereabouts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut will this promise survive a bounty offered by a King and Queen who seek the magic of the deer for their kingdom?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAward-winning translator Jeremy Tiang offers readers his own gift in making Kailin Duan's interpretation sparkle in English, while Duan's illustrations speak beautifully for themselves.","brand":"Levine Querido","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44896385597669,"sku":"NP9781646141784","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/products\/nine-color-deer-isbn-9781646141784","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
