Product Description
Sarah Conover's newest title, "Harmony: A Treasury of Chinese Wisdom for Children
and Parents." "Harmony" is a collection of traditional stories from China. For over two thousand years, the Chinese have used brief sayings known as "chengyu" to sum up practical wisdom and ethical principles.
Most "chengyu" are associated with a story that illustrates their meaning, and these stories have passed down by word of mouth over the centuries.
Gathered in this volume are twenty-four of the most popular "chengyu" and the stories based on them, each beautifully illustrated by Ji Ruoxiao.
For readers who are interested in learning more about the cultural context of the tales, the book includes a brief overview of Chinese religious traditions and background notes on each story, as well as chronology. Simple, often humorous, and always wise, these tales will delight readers of all ages.
Softcover, Traditional Chinese/English (Some pinyin in notes), 154 pages, 9 x 7.5 inches
