The Magic Brocade, a Tale of China.  Bilingual in English & Traditional Chinese.  Hard Cover.

Chinese folk tale of a Brocade that Fairies steal and the adventures of getting it back.

No brocades are more lovely or lifelike than the ones the widow weaves to sell at the marketplace. One day she returns home with a marvelous painting of a fairy palace.   Her son Chen suggests that she weaves the image as a brocade. Devoting all her loving skill, she creates the finest brocade of her life.  It is so fine that the fairies send a wind to carry if off for themselves.

Knowing his mother will die without her beloved creation, Chen stars out after it.  The way to the fairy palace lies over Fiery Mountain and across the Icy Sea. Even if Chen gets there, will the fairies give up the brocade?

This popular Chinese folktale will enchant young and old as Chen and his mother find their way to a happiness beyond their dreams.
