Yoshi the tanuki―a Japanese raccoon-dog―learns how to magically transform himself into anything, even a teapot. But what happens when he can’t change back? This is the tale of the teapot-tanuki’s adventures, from the day he leaves his family to the day he meets the Emperor himself. What will it take for this teapot to become a tanuki again? Only the Emperor’s grandson knows the answer. Asian-influenced illustrations using vibrant acrylic paints bring the mythical tanuki to life. An author’s note is included.
Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor:
Author Tim Myers is a writer, storyteller, and songwriter living in Santa Clara, California, who admits that he, too, has somewhat furry legs. But he hasn’t been able to change himself into anything else―yet. He is also the author of Basho and the Fox, Basho and the River Stones and Tanuki’s Gift: A Japanese Tale.
Illustrator Robert McGuire was born in Kansas and received his BFA from the Kansas City Art Institute. Shortly afterward, he moved to Japan, where he worked as an illustrator, elementary school teacher, and designer. While living in Japan for four years, he developed a profound respect for the country’s art and culture. The soft simplicity of his paintings reflects a mix of influences from both the West and the East. He now lives in New York City with his wife.
