Description
In this reimagining of a Japanese folk tale, Momoko is born from a peach to make the world a better place. Despite the rumors of a terrible ogre that lives nearby and eats children, Momoko bravely sets out with a pocketful of dumplings and the timid Monkey, Dog, and Pheasant to find out the truth for herself.
Description
"When the farmer and her husband find a giant peach at their door, they can't imagine how it got there. But they are even more surprised when the skin bursts open and out leaps -- girl. Momoko is here to make the world a better place, and what better way to start than by investigating the rumors about a fearsome local ogre? Everyone says the ogre has teeth like knives, shoots flames from his eyes and eats small children. The villagers won't go near him. But Momoko wants to find out for herself, and her new friends Monkey, Dog and Pheasant just might be able to help her --as long as she's willing to share those tasty peach dumplings" --,Amazon.
