Book Description Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. Tseng, Mou-Sien; Tseng, Jean (illustrator). First Edition, First Printing. This traditional Cambodian folktale, retold here for modern American children (ages 9 - 12) , is the story of two orphan brothers who grew up in a Buddist monastery. When they were ready to leave the monastery, the abbot advised the older brother, Kem, to go to China and become a merchant. To the younger brother, Sem, the abbot said, "When in love, loo;k at the girl's mother. When in pain, don't sleep. When in bed, don't talk." How Sem first ignored, then heeded this advice makes up this classic folktale, richly illustrated in full color by Jean & Mou-Sien Tseng. 9 3/4 x 11 1/4", 30 pages; text and pictorial covers are clean and unmarked, tight and square; dustjacket is near perfect, showing perhaps a trace of edgewear. Collectable. Seller Inventory # 004213
