About This Book
When Xiao Ming gets separated from his father during a visit to the Forbidden City, he stumbles upon a mysterious passage that transports him back to the Qing Dynasty. There he meets the young Emperor Puyi, who eagerly shows him around the grand palace until a magical bronze dragon whisks them both away. Told in both English and simplified Chinese with luminous watercolor illustrations, this picture book weaves together Chinese history, time travel, and the architectural wonder of the Forbidden City.
