A runaway dumpling rolls straight into trouble, and one very cheerful little woman follows it all the way.
The Funny Little Woman is a lively folktale-style picture book about a woman in old Japan whose laugh is almost impossible to stop. When her dumpling escapes, she chases after it and tumbles into a strange underground world ruled by fearsome three-eyed oni. Quick thinking matters just as much as bravery as she tries to find her way home.
With playful suspense, bold humor, and Caldecott Medal-winning illustrations by Blair Lent, this classic read-aloud has the feel of an old tale told with a wink. Young readers who enjoy clever heroes, monsters, and stories that bounce along with energy will find plenty to follow, laugh at, and remember.
