The Peasant Prince, Paperback / softback Book

The Peasant Prince Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

This true story of a poor Chinese peasant boy, who at the age of ten was plucked unsuspectingly from millions of others across the land to be trained as a ballet dancer, is a fairytale that has captivated children and adults alike.

Li tells his story with disarming simplicity and charm, with humour and compassion, and here he speaks directly to the small child, his special audience.

He has a personal story to tell you, and he begins by introducing you to the land of his childhood, and to his beloved father, and to a small child who was once Li himself- he tells us of that boy growing up in hardship, yet with love and affection, as he shares with us the lives of his large family, the special stories in his life, the inspiring teachers, the experiences and moments he will never forget.
