I posted a review on Amazon for you Patrick, but I don't have a camera right now to show you which copy I got. it looks like the one you put a picture up of, except the mantis is on the right side of your signature and your sig is alot shorter.

There was one book where I super-compressed my signature, signing PLUGO rather than my full name. I suspect you're the recipient of this utterly unique copy.

Could be.

So far the books getting some solid reviews over on Amazon.com

This book accomplished exactly what I hoped it would - introduced my kids to the practical, peaceful philosophy of Chinese martial arts...

though we could sure use more of 'em.

This is a charming rendering of an ancient legend and will appeal to those who enjoy martial arts, myths, and legends, or just a good story.

got this for my 6 yr old nephew who just started studying martial arts. He loves it! He loves the story, and the artwork. And I'm happy knowing I got him something he can grow into, as he's learning to read books on his own now. It gives him another reason to practice reading! He even had his mom buy a copy as a gift for someone else, that's how much he digs it!
