A girl performs martial arts poses from a book, unleashing each form's titular, chaos-wreaking creature (crane, leopard, snake, and dragon). An offbeat story with delightfully kinetic art, but purists may fault McClintock's abandonment of the usual fifth form of southern Chinese martial arts, the Tiger, for a convenient "final form [that] returns everything to the way it was" before Mom returns home.
