The Five Chinese Brothers (Paperstar)
by Claire Huchet Bishop, Kurt Wiese
Five brothers look exactly alike, and each one has a surprising special talent. When one brother is sentenced to death for something he could not help, the others take turns standing in for him, and each uses his gift to escape. This folktale has made children laugh since 1938. It is worth reading together and talking about, because some of the pictures of Chinese people show old stereotypes.
