In this installment of the Fairy Tale Feasts series, Yee has taken over for Jane Yolen, who penned the last two volumes. His 13 fairy tales from China range from cautionary tales about greed to stories of the eight immortals to narratives that recall traditionally Western tales, such as "New World Cinderella," in which the poor, beleaguered step-daughter claims a reward for her magical shoe and goes off alone to make her own fortune. Yee does a great job of incorporating the traditional stories and recipes with brief paragraphs that provide helpful historical context. A tale about the miraculous origin of noodles, for example, is paired with a simple recipe for noodles in peanut sauce, as well as some facts about the history of the culinary staple in China. The recipes, almost all of which will require adult supervision, are fairly straightforward and don't require too many components, and most ingredients can be found in larger supermarkets. An entertaining, multifaceted, and st importantly licious way to explore Chinese culture at home or in a classroom.
