"Claudia spends the summer in the house of her grandmother, who is Chinese. She tells Claudia bits of family history, a terrible past that is a source of both sadness and pride. In this way, Claudia learns about the hard life of her great-grandfather Opal, who was a spy during World War I. The novel, rich in life lessons and emotions, recreates exotic environments through Chinese stories and legends interspersed with the narration."

The lazy rooster and the mischievous mouse can't be bothered to help the Little Red Hen tend her ear of wheat. They can't be bothered to help her take it to the miller either, or bake it into bread. But when her loaf of warm, fragrant bread is ready, the Little Red Hen is not at all inclined to share it with them. The Rooster and the mouse soon mend their ways. This lively version of the classic tale is given contemporary treatment with dynamic, textured illustrations which consist of collage hung wires and then photographed by artist Kate Slater.
