The Emperor and the Kite

Largely ignored by her own family, Princess Djeow Seow spends her days playing with a kite made from paper and sticks. But when the Emperor is imprisoned in a high tower, only the Princess can save the day, flying her kite high up into the sky to rescue her father. "A familiar jewel polished to unaccustomed brilliance." Booklist "It is rare to find a book where the beauty of the language and image are so finely meshed as in this tale of loyalty and love."
