Product Information
Before Bruce Lee became an international film star he was a boy growing up in Hong in the 1940s and 1950s who loved to read, play practical jokes, and get into trouble on the street. In Hong Kong, martial arts were as popular as baseball was in the United States. Bruce studied martial arts under the watchful eye of Yip Man, the best martial arts master in Hong Kong. At first Bruce's interest was motivated purely by his desire to win more fights in the street, but he soon discovered that he was really being taught not to have to fight. Bruce Lee eventually became a pioneer of martial arts cinema, and his legacy lives on in popular culture more than thirty years after his death. But it is his boyhood journey toward self-discovery and his courage to overcome obstacles that will inspire all who search for their way in the world today.

Reviews
"This picture-book biography is a gentle tribute to a martial-arts legend. . . The brown-and-white illustrations, scratched through beeswax melted over acrylic on paper, are lovely and play an important role in moving the narrative along." -- School Library Journal "Mochizuki and Lee are compelling storytellers." -- Publishers Weekly "Lee looks rather nerdy in his early years, which will no doubt lend appeal." -- Kirkus Reviews "By the author and illustrator of Baseball Saved Us (1993) , this distinctive-looking book offers a smoothly written text and many handsome, textured acrylic paintings done in tones of brown and cream acrylic paints. With its sophisticated look and high-interest topic, this picture book has appeal for readers across a broad age range." -- Booklist "Photographically exact drawings in sepia by the sensitive and masterful artist Dom Lee illustrate the early years of Bruce Lee. Accurate to a degree seldom seen in picture books, these superbly catch the flavor of life in old Hong Kong. . ." -- MultiCultural Review "For this gift of successfully introducing Bruce Lee to a new generation, author, illustrator and publisher are to be congratulated. While my children are currently too young, there will come a time when I will share with them the story of a boy whose passage to adulthood and short life offered many lessons, for better or worse." -- Bruce Lee Review Distinguished Children's Biography List, Cleveland Public Library Original Art Show, Society of Illustrators, "This picture-book biography is a gentle tribute to a martial-arts legend. . .

The brown-and-white illustrations, scratched through beeswax melted over acrylic on paper, are lovely and play an important role in moving the narrative along." -- School Library Journal "Mochizuki and Lee are compelling storytellers." -- Publishers Weekly "Lee looks rather nerdy in his early years, which will no doubt lend appeal." -- Kirkus Reviews "Focusing on the childhood and youth of Bruce Lee, this biographical picture book portrays him as a boy who made mistakes, but learned from them. Growing up in Hong Kong in the 1940s and 1950s, Lee dreamed of becoming a film star and had little use for school. He took up martial arts and, though initially drawn more to its combat than its philosophy, he slowly began to understand the finer points of the discipline. When his fighting temper led to trouble with the police at age 18, his parents sent him to San Francisco for a fresh start. The book's final page, 'The Rest of Bruce Lee's Story,' summarizes the remainder of his life. By the author and illustrator of Baseball Saved Us (1993), this distinctive-looking book offers a smoothly written text and many handsome, textured acrylic paintings done in tones of brown and cream acrylic paints. With its sophisticated look and high-interest topic, this picture book has appeal for readers across a broad age range." -- Booklist "Photographically exact drawings in sepia by the sensitive and masterful artist Dom Lee illustrate the early years of Bruce Lee.
