Nàng Út: The Clever Advisor: An English Retelling of a Vietnamese Folktale

By Hanh Thi Nguyen

N ng t: The Clever Advisor is a gentle and joyful retelling of a traditional Vietnamese folktale for young readers. When the king is searching for someone wise enough to solve the kingdom's trickiest problems, he doesn't expect a clever young girl from a humble village to surprise him all. With only a small jar of rice, N ng t shows that kindness, courage, and clever thinking can change everything.

Told in warm, simple language and illustrated in the soft style of Vietnamese silk paintings from the 1920s, this story celebrates wisdom in unexpected places and honors the heart of Vietnamese storytelling.

Perfect for ages 4-6, this picture book is ideal for family read-alouds, multicultural classrooms, and early learners exploring traditional tales.
