"This is the enchanting story of a little Chinese boy who cut the tails of the Emperor's favourite horse to make string for his kite, and of the astonishing adventures he met when a strong gust of wind carried him away into strange lands." With fifty illustrations by John Ward, a few of which are full page coloured illustrations, the majority black and white drawings.
