Monkey Borrows the Palmleaf Fan, retold by Lady Pamela Youde
Tripitaka and his three disciples, Monkey, Pigsy, and Sandy, were chosen to undertake a pilgrimage to India, during which they came across all sorts of dangers and difficulties. This time, the Flaming Mountain blocked their way, and they needed a little help from the Princess Iron Fan and Bull Demon, well, parents of the Red Boy, who wanted to eat up Tripitaka and was just defeated by Monkey. Things never go smooth for them!
"Monkey Borrows the Palmleaf Fan" is included in the collection of three Chinese stories specially selected and retold in English for young readers. This story is from the classical Chinese literature Journey to the West and is widely known to the Chinese people, and reflect, in varying degrees, some of the essential characteristics of Chinese culture. The collection is accompanied by beautiful full-colour illustrations drawn by Lo King-man as well as audio narration by Pamela Youde, the author of the collection and the wife of the former Hong Kong governor Sir Edward Youde.
