Hong Kong and Chinese authorities arrest men over 'seditious' children's books

Two men were arrested in Hong Kong for possessing copies of a children's book that officials deemed "seditious." The book, part of a series titled "Yangcun," tells the story of a group of sheep who fight back against wolves that are trying to take over their village and eat them. The men were released on bail, but have to report to police next month. Hong Kong residents have seen their rights rolled back in recent years following Beijing's introduction of its 2020 national security law, intended to crack down on widespread pro-democracy protests that rocked Hong Kong beginning in 2019.
