Will delight brave young readers and fantasy-loving adult readers alike.” —Library Journal, starred review From Russ Manning Award finalist Ryan Lang comes an expansive retelling of the Japanese folktale about Issunboshi, the six-inch high samurai!

The only person who can stop him is an inches-tall would-be samurai, who also happens to be the final and most important piece of the weapon.
