This is book 4 of a fantastic series. Think Kung Fu Panda if it was a book and the animals were people, and you're extremely close to the story's main plot: a Buddhist temple gets destroyed by an ex-monk seeking revenge on the grandmaster, and the only survivors are the 5 youngest monks who also happen to be the youngest monks in history to become kung fu masters. Each child is a master of a different Kung Fu style-Tiger, Monkey, Snake, Crane, and Dragon. The 5 orphans must seek help to stop the ex-monk and his army from destroying more temples and trying to conquer ancient China. ( )

Hok, a crane-style Kung Fu master, is also a master at hiding. For the past 12 years, she has hidden the fact that she is a girl. Now her rogue brother, Ying, and his army have placed a huge price on her head. Fortunately, she manages to make it to Keifeng where she finds her mother and a "round-eye" with the very funny name of Charles. Together Hok and Charles start to make some sense of the magnitude of Ying's plans.

crane was an awsome book and following the same plot as the other books before it. it was a little confusing but the ending was awsome! they finally meet dragon (long) in the end and ying turns good?! ( )
