Description:
The Far East is closer than you think. Here are fifteen traditional tales that embrace the folklore and culture of China, the country the Chinese call the "Middle Kingdom", at the center of the universe. All of the stories are intriguing in their portrayal of everything from royal dynasties, sorcerers, and philosophers to peddlers, goat herders, and bandits. (Not to mention ghosts, dragons, and trained eels.) Readers of all ages will be enticed into a world of pageantry and enchantment and will want to carry on the tradition of telling -- and retelling -- stories to all who will listen.
