Wax on, wax off! The classic movie about a boy and his karate teacher
is now a fun picture book for the whole family!
When The Karate Kid appeared in theaters in 1984, its heartwarming
story of an unlikely friendship between a bullied boy and the Japanese
maintenance man in his new apartment building became an instant classic.
Now the beloved film is reimagined as a cute and colorful picture book,
with charming illustrations by Kim Smith. When young Daniel is targeted
by students from the Cobra Kai dojo, his neighbor Mr. Miyagi agrees to
train him for the upcoming karate tournament. But why is Mr. Miyagi
making Daniel wax his cars, sand his deck, and paint his house? Will
Daniel ever master the art of karate? This timeless story of overcoming
the odds will delight kids, their parents, and anyone who has ever had
that one special teacher.
