Chinese Radicals: The 螞蟻 Goes Marching

Peter’s Chinese Kid Lit #4: The Witch’s Determination

June 6th, 2009 | No Comments

Sorry for the month long hiatus. I’ve been busy tap dancing and being a performer on stage.

This installment of Chinese Kid Lit returns to the story of the Old Lady Witch who turned into a bench. We rejoin her story many years later.
