I HATE THIS BOOK Rating (1) Date: 2008-03-17 0 out of 1 customers found this reveiw helpful It was so rush and it had the worst way of having crane-man die. This is among the worst books that i have ever read. It had a lot of information though. I had to read it for school and no one liked it. Do not read this book it is really bad!!!

a heart--warming story about ancient Korea Rating (5) Date: 2004-11-02 10 out of 10 customers found this reveiw helpful "A Single Shard" by Linda Sue Park tells about a homeless boy taught how to survive by a one-legged beggar. By determination and use of his observations the boy inches closer to his dream career; a career which society says is open only to the sons of craftsmen. The obstacles are immense. But his honesty in repaying a debt with his own physical labour reaps benefits far beyond easing his conscience. The story starts bleakly but soon captures the reader's attention. The five main characters become mutually interdependent. This slim story about rural life in 12th century Korea is a great read which leaves the reader wanting more.
