Even Disney has a version of this classic tale, traced back to its earliest form here as a Song dynasty poem. The text is in English and traditional Chinese characters. Beautifully illustrated bilingual children's picture book illustrated throughout in color. This story of a young girl who went to war in her father's place and became a great and victorious General dates back from the time of the Northern Wei dynasty. A joy for all ages.
