Samurai Kids, Book 3: Shaolin Tiger
By Sandy Fussell
Illustrated by Rhian Nest James
The Samurai Kids journey to China to fulfil a promise Sensei Ki-Yaga made many years ago.
Long before Sensei Ki-Yaga built the Cockroach Ryu, he travelled to China and studied at the Shalin Temple in the north-western Song Shan Mountains of China. Sensei promised to return to help the abbot in the Temple's time of need. Telling the Samurai Kids that the abbott has a treasure in need of safekeeping, they set off on a journey to China.
- The Samurai Kids have developed a dedicated fan base that will continue to grow as the series expands; perfect for boys and girls.
- An historically accurate depiction of feudal Japan and China, this expertly researched series mixes action with historical information.
