Once Upon a Time in the Chinese Empire

Once Upon a Time in the Chinese Empire is Natali Lipin's third book, this time directed at teenagers. It unfolds the story of true love that overcomes all the obstacles placed in the lovers path by a wizard-fox. Combining the plot of Swan Lake with Chinese folktales and historical events, it highlights life's truths. This entire fabric is woven with the threads of the author's imagination, as China's magical vistas burst forth from her illustrations.
