Tao is
a mischievous student at Master Snows School. He is studying to be a Samurai.
The book is presented in tons of 1 to 2 page mini stories, which are silly and
funny. Like Tao at archery practice; he gets some great arrow target practice shots towards the blue
target and his teacher praises him, at the end Tao wonders if he should admit
he was actually trying for the red target.
The
artwork is fun and well drawn, especially the facial expressions. I am a bit
grumpy about this book because I really enjoyed reading it, but for a school
library it goes just a tad wrong for me
when the boys peek into the girls locker room. Yet the story itself, is just a
bit too youthful for middle school students to enjoy it. Wish they had left
that part out.
