{"product_id":"kamishibai-man-allen-say-9780618479542","title":"Kamishibai Man","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Kamishibai man used to ride his bicycle into town where he would tell stories to the children and sell them candy, but gradually, fewer and fewer children came running at the sound of his clappers. They were all watching their new televisions instead. Finally, only one boy remained, and he had no money for candy. Years later, the Kamishibai man and his wife made another batch of candy, and he pedaled into town to tell one more story--his own. When he comes out of the reverie of his memories, he looks around to see he is surrounded by familiar faces--the children he used to entertain have returned, all grown up and more eager than ever to listen to his delightful tales. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eUsing two very different yet remarkable styles of art, Allen Say tells a tale within a tale, transporting readers seamlessly to the Japan of his memories.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Allen Say\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0618479546\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780618479542\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Clarion Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 32\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 10.00w x 0.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.3\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.5\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Lower Grade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e101289 \/ Kamishibai Man\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Parents Choice Award (Fall) (1998-2007) - Winner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Oregon Book Awards - Finalist\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e North Carolina Children's Book Award - Nominee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/22\/2005 pg. 63\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eIngram Children's Advance\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/2005 pg. 44\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/15\/2005 pg. 62\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/2005 pg. 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Review - Children\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/15\/2005 pg. 1146\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHorn Book Magazine\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2005 pg. 709\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBulletin of Ctr for Child Bks\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2005 pg. 154 - Recommended\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eALA Notable Children's Books\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2006 pg. 24\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHornbook Guide to Children\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2006 pg. 48 - Superior,Well Above Average","brand":"Allen Say","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44048630579455,"sku":"9780618479542","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_231edc4e-e55c-466e-bac7-8d1ff4adf96a.jpg?v=1684996893","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/kamishibai-man-allen-say-9780618479542","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
