Sagei.9
Monkey King | Ed Young

“Monkey had saved the day. Did Monkey's humility last? That's another story for another book.“

blurb
Sagei.9
Monkey King | Ed Young

This might introduce mythology that kids have not been exposed to before! It's an interesting book with an ambiguous ending.

A redemptive story about Monkey. It starts with Monkey as a mischievous presence against the heavens and ends with Monkey saving the heavens. Ed Young is from Tientsin, China and this is a story from Chinese mythology.

Mi primer libro en español! Budista y profesor de ética y religión, David Loy identifica el sentido del "yo" como destructivo en el sentido de que hay una otra mitad necesaria de la cual comprendemos algo que siempre falta. Así lo llenamos de dinero, sexo, guerra y karma.

“He shrank the pillar until it was as small as a needle, and he tucked it behind his ear.“

Monkey King | Ed Young

Using Chinese folklore it provides readers with knowledge of the legendary Monkey King and why he is so important in Chinese culture as it is one of the best-known stories in China. I think it is also a great book to use when teaching students the value of trusting your friends.

“Monkey King“ is a legendary tale formed from Chinese folklore that follows a courageous hero as he travels to India and protects Xuan Zang throughout their journey. This classic tale is one that is great for learning about the value of identity.

Monkey King is a folktale because it uses a lot of Chinese cultural elements and has oral tradition roots. It also has morals and themes like personal growth, humility, and wisdom. it also fits the myth category because there is a main character who goes on a journey and transforms.
