A single-shard-unabridged
1. A Single Shard (Unabridged)
Foraging in fields and on rubbish heaps, and sharing food with his friend Crane-man,
used to be enough to fill Tree-ear's days. But now all Tree-ear wants to do is watch
master potter Min at work.Ch'ulp'o is a potters' village, famous for delicate celadon
ware, and Min is the most brilliant of all potters in Ch'ulp'o. He is also known to be
short-tempered. Even so, Tree-ear is drawn irresistibly to Min's workplace. He is
fascinated by the miracle of the potter's craft and dream of making a pot of his own
someday. His quest leads him down unexpected paths, with hazards and rewards
beyond imagining.This account of a creative spirit on its journey toward fulfillment is
set in twelfth-century Korea, where the course of human destiny could be determined
by a single celadon shard.A Single Shard won the 2002 Newbery Medal for most
distinguished American children's book.
