A striking 1980 retelling of the traditional Chinese legend of Nezha, the fearless young hero whose encounter with the Dragon King of the East Sea sets off an extraordinary mythic adventure.
Published in Beijing by Foreign Languages Press for English-language readers, this unusual first edition is based on the celebrated 1979 animated film Nezha Conquers the Dragon King. Its pages are filled with vivid full-color images from the film, creating a wonderfully cinematic picture-book experience.
A fascinating piece of Chinese children’s publishing and animation history.
