ISBN: 0-399-21499-2 Language: English Description: "Enter the magical world of The Emperor and the Kite and let your imagination
sail away to ancient China, where a tiny princess spends her days alone, flying
a kite made from paper and sticks. Djeow Seow, the Emperor's tiniest daughter,
is always forgotten by her family, but when her father is taken prisoner, only
Djeow Seow's courage and a little help from her kite can save him. Traditional,
Oriental papercut illustrations embellish this sensitive tale of love and loyalty."
