A Single Shard [SCM]

by Linda Sue Park Author

Tree-ear, a thirteen-year-old orphan in medieval Korea, lives under a bridge in a potters' village and longs to learn how to throw the delicate celadon ceramics himself. A beautiful story of determination, courage, and love. (Note: The story contains two casual comments that allude to their belief in reincarnation and a folk tale about a king's concubines.)
