In this Caldecott Medal-winning tale set in Old Japan, a lively little woman who loves to laugh pursues her runaway dumpling--and must outwit the wicked three-eyed oni when she lands in their clutches.
"The pictures are in perfect harmony with the humorous mood of the story. . . . It's all done with a commendable amount of taste, imagination, and style."--School Library Journal (starred review) "A beautifully convincing tale."--The New York Times Book Review "Using elements of traditional Japanese art, the illustrator has made marvelously imaginative pictures."--The Horn Book "Lent's pictures are a lively blend of finely detailed, delicate drawings and rip-roaring good humor."--The Boston Globe "A good read-aloud with lots of suspense."--Learning Awards:About the Author: Arlene Mosel was born in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1921.
