On the top of my favorites list

As other reviewers have said, the illustrations in this book are lush and really beautiful, and the mouse is really charming. I've read many books to my daughter over the last 5 years and this is one of my very favorite books (tied with Anatole). The one thing I'd add is that there is a really nice touch at the end where Chopsticks goes back regularly to the old man who carved the dragon to tell him about his adventures with the dragon. To me it's a subtle message of respect for the elderly and the mouse's thoughtfulness and willingness to think of a way to make someone else happy, not just himself.

A fun tale for all, and especially those in Hong Kong

I give this book to children when we go to visit, and explain that we live in the very city and have eaten at the very restaurant featured in the story. They all love that!

A book that I love to read, and she loves to see

Chopsticks is a little white mouse who lives in a floating restaurant in Hong Kong. At the door of the restaurant are two enormous pillars that are carved in the shape of magnificent dragons. And when, on a New Year's night, one of the dragons talks to little Chopsticks, it is the start of the greatest adventure of little Chopsticks' life! Every night, I read several books to my little four-year-old. Well, this is one of our favorites! Chopsticks himself is so cute, and we really liked the foreign settings. The illustration work is very good, and goes excellently with the text. Yep, this is a great book, one that I love to read, and she loves to see. We both highly recommend Chopsticks to you and your little reader!

Charming.

My boys and I do not tire of this book. The beautiful illustrations match the delightful story of an unlikely relationship that benefits both parties, and benefits the reader! We love it.
