I recently stumbled upon a comic book in the library called "The Sayings of Confucius". It is in Chinese and I would like to ask everyone's opinion of whether if it is a manhua or not.

http://www.amazon.com/Sayings-Confucius-Asiapac-Comic/dp/9813029404

Well, probably not a lot of people read this comic.

The text version is on this site: http://www.confucius.org/main01.htm
Well, it's not a text version of the comic but a text version of the original book.

umm it's probably just like a book turned comic book. well dont think it'd be considered manga. i think i have a book like that. each page has a little story in comic book/manga form and it's like a short lil story that trys to teach ya something. well one of the guy's teaching.

If its a comic, and it's in Chinese, i guess you could call it a manhua since the chinese word for comic is manhua >_>

Oh oh, I know, maybe it's a graphic novel. I read ''The hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy'', ''the restaurant at the end of the universe'' and ''life universe and everything else'' in a three pack graphic novel version.

Ohhh, your book's style is the same as the one I'm talking about. Same artist? same company?

this is funny, you read a buddhist one, I read a confusist one and a Taoist one.
