YHBA: The Legend of Hong Kil Dong by Anne O’Brien

August 5th, 2008 by Carl Harvey

Taking the rich culture and customs of ancient Korea, the author has created her version on an old Korean tale that is much like that of Robin Hood. Written and illustrated as a graphic novel, the format will appeal to kids. The speech bubbles and action illustrations will help students understand as they read through the story. The tale is the classic person who rises above all the wrong-doing and corruption, to protect and defend the poor. The author includes at the end how she came to find the story and decide to tell it in this picture book format.
