This Chinese author/illustrator used a variety of art techniques in his fables from his own and other cultures. He used a cut paper technique in The Emperor and the Kite, pictures divided into panels in the Chinese version of Red Riding Hood (which won the 1990 Caldecott medal), and inky black backgrounds of the tale from India, Seven Blind Mice. This is Ed Young, who died this week on September 29th at the age of 91.
