YO! If I had even one brother like these seven, I could'a ruled Philadelphia! Great story!

• My Son Liked This Book A Lot... 20 September, 2008
... and that's the best review I can give it. We read it together in the Spanish-language edition, with the same colorful illustrations. If there's a moral to the story, it has to do with solidarity between the brothers, recognition of differing skills, appreciation of each other's worth.
There's another book called The Five Chinese Brothers, which perhaps teaches the same lessons in a less 'terrifying' narrative. My thought is that both books belong in a good children's library, along with the story of the Chinese girl who goes to war in her father's stead. American children deserve some taste of the heroism of China to counteract the still-rampant discrimination against all things Chinese.

• Seven Chinese Brothers 24 May, 2004
The book was really nice. It was very fun when the seventh brother got his tears out, and all of the armies went away. It was also very fun when the emperor was trying to hurt the brothers. But he didn't. That is all. M vd S
