When a nasty rat overruns his castle, the daimyo, a powerful lord, enlists help from three samurai cats in this wonderful, humorous and very eastern tale with a powerful Zen message. Wildly popular with 1st graders for social studies or writers workshop, this is one of my FAVORITE stories and most successful classroom units. Great of reading, for read alouds, for telling, for group writing, for art, for folktales, for country study, for everything. Eric Kimmel is the best!
