The greedy emperor hears about Lao Lao's skills and has her imprisoned not realising an ice dragon nearby is watching! A modern take on traditional stories from China. Papercutting templates and instructions included.

"Lao Lao of Dragon Mountain" is a beautiful tale - new yet somehow full of a sense of the traditions of ancient Chinese stories. it is one of those rare books that can be used across the curriculum, for it reflects the culture of China and offers practical art activities, ideas for work on communication, and thoughts about the danger of greed. A book for all KS2 classrooms. Wendy Cooling Founder of Bookstart
