The Dragon King of the sea has lost his shine. His scales are dull, his court is silent, and the only cure lies somewhere far above the waves - inside a rabbit who eats wild silver herbs and sleeps under the moon.
So Byeoljubu, the king's most loyal turtle, is sent up to the land of trees and wind to fetch one. He has never seen a rabbit before. He is about to meet one who is much, much cleverer than expected.
A fresh retelling of one of Korea's most beloved folktales - sung for centuries in the pansori tradition as Sugungga the Song of the Sea Palace. With wry humor, lyrical read-aloud rhythm, and a court of jellyfish ministers, crab scholars, and shrimp scribes, it is a story about wit, power, and the small voice inside that whispers
don't trust this.
The seventh tale in the NO SOLDA Korean Folktales series. For ages 5-10. Perfect for read-aloud at home and in the classroom.
