Tucker, Kathy. 2003. THE SEVEN CHINESE SISTERS. Albert Whitman and Company. Morton Grove, Illinois. ISBN 0807573094
THE SEVEN CHINESE SISTERS is about seven Chinese sisters who each have their own talent. In the beginning, the reader does not know what the baby’s talents are but through the course of events her talent is also revealed. The illustrations, by Grace Lin, are bright and colorful and include many patterns. The pictures reveal accurate depictions of Chinese clothing, housing, and beliefs about dragons. The dragon in the book resembles the pictures of the Chinese dragon people see when looking at Chinese New Year information. Throughout the story we see each sister use her talents to help the family rescue the baby. The plot, problem, solution, and characters are all interwoven beautifully to create a seamless story that will captivate readers.
