Featuring beautiful watercolor paintings, this multicultural children's book tells the story of China's child emperor."A long time ago, the Littlest Emperor ruled the largest empire in the world." So begins this story about a little boy with big responsibilities, an even bigger heart, and his search for something he's never had: fun. Though the Littlest Emperor has everything you'd ever think he might want, he doesn't know what fun is. So, with his trusted Grand Adviser beside him, he sets out across his empire in a grand search for how to have fun. Author David Seow spins a magical Chinese children's tale about finding happiness in the most unexpected of places.Filled with a host of memorable characters and delicious dialogue that young children will savor (and older ones delight to read aloud!), and illustrated by the renowned artist Olga Polunin with warm hues that reflect the pan-Asian spirit of the story, The Littlest Emperor promises to become another favorite in our growing collection of Chinese children's books.
