These exciting stories from China are about dragons, robbers, monkeys in hats, lion dancers, Nien monsters and hopping ghosts. Worst of all is the bully Zhou Chou and his confrontation with the Fiercest Beast of All. Each story has a short introduction explaining its origin, and maps locate the regions where each was first told and retold. There is also a glossary of local terms and some ideas for further reading and activities based on the stories.
