Book Reviews of Tikki Tikki Tembo

Book Review: A Great Chinese Folktale!
Summary: 5 Stars

Tikki Tikki Tembo
Retold by Arlene Mosel

One school day I was browsing for a folktale. I looked in the book box with folktales in my classroom. There it was: Tikki Tikki Tembo. I grabbed it and started to read. It was fantastic! The pictures were so beautiful and the names were totally awesome.

In this story there were two brothers. The youngest was a small boy called Chang, which means "Little or Nothing" and his bigger brother called Tikki tikki tembo-no sa rembo-chari bari ruchi-pip peri pembo, which means "The Most Wonderful Thing In the Whole Wide World".

I liked how their mother always warned the two sons to never go close to the well. But of course as you know they would not listen and they got into a lot of trouble! This book is an old Chinese folktale but still enjoyable for both children and adults. I hope you'll read it soon.
