| Description: |
Blia Xiong heard the folktale "Nine-in-One, Grr! Grr!" when she was a small girl living in the mountains of Laos. Cathy Spagnoli started collecting stories from Southeast Asisn refugees in 1983 as a way to build cross-cultural bridges. The artwork is adapted from the Laotian technique of narrative stitchery. ALA Notable Children's Book. |
| Synopsis: |
Nine-in-one, Grr! Grr! sings Tiger happily as she returns from the kingdom of the great god Shao. Shao has told her she will have nine baby tigers every year as long as she remembers his words: "Nine-in-one." Bird is worried about the prospect of a world full of tigers (tigers who would eat birds!) and sets out to trick Tiger into forgetting her all-important song. Before long, poor Tiger has her song backward "One-in-nine, Grr! Grr!" and the balance of nature is ensured." |
