What Would You Be in Ancient China

See ancient China through the eyes of more than 25 young people as they set out in life. Here you will meet teenagers like Chao, a papermaker’s son and Baozhai, a talented poet. You will spend time with a hardworking student, a soldier stationed on the Great Wall, a silk maker’s daughter and boys travelling the Silk Road. 

When China was first united some 2250 years ago, it was already a country rich in skills and tradition, where farmers grew rice in flooded fields, women wove beautiful silk cloth, and philosophers wrote important guides to life. China’s imperial age of dynasties and emperors lasted to the 20th century. 

Makes it easier for modern readers to understand the past.

Shows the lives of girls and women on every page providing an inclusive view of life in the ancient world.

Ideal for home & school libraries.
