A Thousand Beginnings and Endings
by Elsie Chapman, Ellen Oh
A compilation of retold Asian folk-tales and myths by Asian YA authors. Some were great! Some were, eh, but a pretty well rounded compilation of stories. Is it Printz material? Eeehehhhh. I'm heistant to say so. I enjoy the author blurb at the end talking about the original myth and what they brought into with with their modern retelling. Some were weaker than others, so I think with some stronger choices for the stories, they might have a more stronger candidate if they wanted to win Printz with this. Definitely nice to have a good representation for Asian YA and they do have some popular authors in there.
