Features: For over two thousand years, the stories of the twelve zodiac signs have been widely circulated among various ethnic groups in our country. As a cultural representative of Chinese folklore, the twelve zodiac signs are hailed as one of the world's great wonders and have attracted the attention of people both domestically and internationally, becoming an endlessly interpretable topic. This series of books is an animated collection that gathers the essence of this cultural heritage. The stories in this book are drawn from the finest myths, folk tales, and idiomatic expressions of the Chinese zodiac that have been passed down for two thousand years. Each story stands alone as an independent episode, with plots that are fantastical and whimsical, and content that is humorous and quirky. The book features over 500 cartoon designs, some exaggerated and comical, some detailed and realistic, and others imaginative and bizarre. Examples include the clever and adorable Golden Silk Monkey with a soaring nose, the always curious and chubby Xiaobian Puya, and the perpetually bouncing, big-nosed Mao Tou, among others. Behind each design lies a lively, humorous, and witty story.
