Book Description
Based on the historical thief who lived in Japan in the late 1600s or early 1700s, this is a story of Ishikawa, who steals to feed the poor and hungry. "Luenn's version of a Japanese folktale hums with suspense. Hague's soaring, beautiful paintings animate the story."--Publishers Weekly
