The River
A wholly unique world comes to life in the pages of this picture book in translation. The Oolongs and the Kukichas are two families who live along the river Longo; though they share many similarities, they rarely interact. When a monster attacks the river, only an unlikely alliance between an Oolong, Lu Cha, and a Kukicha, Ali Roo, can save both of their families from destruction. The pages brim with imaginative flora and fauna, as well as rich details of two accepting cultures.
