Shang -Chi and Xialing are called to bedtime stories by their mother. She tells them about all the guardians of her village called To Lo. The guardians are a lion, a fox, a horse, a phoenix, Morris ( a flying bear), and a dragon. These guardians will protect those they love just like their mother will protect them.


I enjoyed the Asian culture portrayed in this story. The illustrations are exquisite in bright beautiful colors. Marvel fans will find this very appealing. I could not understand where Morris came from.  He did not seem to fit in with all the other guardians.
