Description

This full-color whimsical “tour” through four thousand years of Chinese history has something for all readers. Designed to appeal to a younger audience, the author’s detailed illustrations shed new light on everything from China’s diverse geography to its art, culture, clothing, customs, history, food, travel, and all aspects of traditional and contemporary society. With a great eye for detail and a funny, thoughtful knack for tackling such a huge subject, Qicheng Wang offers what could be considered a “China encyclopedia” for younger readers, and an ideal first book through which they can begin years of discovery about Chinese history and culture. Qicheng Wang is one of China’s most popular illustrators.
