In november of the previous year, this picture book, De Tempelwachters of the RijksMuseum, was published in collaboration with Rijksmuseum Amsterdam. A beautifully illustrated children's book about two exceptional, very old Asian statues. The book was written by author Harriet Impey and really brilliantly illustrated by Katie Pickwoad.
Shiro has just moved, but when he hears that his new village can expect an attack on the temple by Ninjas, he goes looking for help. He has heard that the emperor's guards will come to defend the temple, but sadly, the guards turn out to be statues. What to do now?
