Dan Luo has been publishing his stories since 1958 and has won the Chen Bochui International Children’s Literature Award. His works have been translated into Japanese and English.
Jie Huang
Jie Huang is a painter and illustrator. His illustrations have been displayed at the Bologna International Children’s Book Fair and some of his books were selected as the “Most Beautiful Chinese Picture Books” at the 2020 China Picture Book Exhibition.
Huang’s stylized, cartoon animals add significant pep to this fable from Aesop and its instructive second act. Round-headed Rabbit will elicit giggles as he runs, eyes shut tight with determination, perspiration dripping from his forehead, and feet frantically churning to stay ahead.
