The Four Seasons of the Pipa

Enhanced ebook (includes audio) On a cold winter night, a young girl dreams of visiting her faraway grandfather in Kunming, a magical place in China known as the eternal city of spring. As gusts of snow blow outside her window, the gentle sound of her mother plucking the pipa in the family room wraps around her like a warm blanket. The intricately illustrated story is followed by notes on the origin of the pipa and 2 stirring instrumental recordings: "Beautiful Mountain and Clear Water" and "Drunk by the Sounds of Nature".
