THE MAGIC PAINTBRUSH The Magic Paintbrush, Book 1

by | Read by Sunny Lu

Children Ages 8+ • 4.5 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2024

Narrator Sunny Lu creates charming character voices in this action-packed retelling of a children's classic that is a perfect family listen. Amy is struggling with art assignments in school, missing the days she spent drawing her fantasy creature, Luna. When she's visiting her Lao Lao (grandmother), she discovers a jade paintbrush that literally brings her drawings to life, including Luna, who promptly runs amok throughout her grandmother's neighborhood. Lu creates energetic character voices, especially when it come to Amy's grandmother and exuberant Luna. Her dynamic pacing ramps up the high-stakes plot as old rivalries come back to haunt Lao Lao. Lu deftly handles the Chinese pronunciations that ground this story in Chinese myth and culture. S.T.C. © AudioFile 2024, Portland, Maine [Published: NOVEMBER 2024]
