Summary: A retelling of the original Chinese poem in which a brave young girl masquerades as a boy and fight the Tartars in the Khan's army.
Strengths:
It's nice to read this tale in its original story compared to the Disney version. It is another story that is a good example of strong women in traditional stories. The illustrations are nicely done and work with the words on the page.
