Publisher Description

An illustrated collection of fairytales by one of China’s most celebrated contemporary children’s authors.

Beloved across the world, Tang Tang is famous for weaving traditional Chinese storytelling with Western fantasy elements to craft memorable stories of wonder and magic. These beautiful, poignant fairy tales will leave an imprint on your heart with their universal themes of friendship, family, loyalty and loss.

In this volume, Tang Tang explores what happens when two children promise to reunite in a year—and two toy cats make the same pledge; when a ghost carries an orphan girl away to his island to teach his plants to talk; when an immortal phoenix falls in love with a mortal man; when a young boy rides a mysterious train into the wilderness; and when a sleepless ghost decides to hang upside down in a girl’s chimney?
