That night, everyone marvels at the beautiful, mysterious young woman at the ball. When Ye-Shen is forbidden to attend the annual spring Festival, the spirit grants her a gown of azure blue and delicate golden slippers. But the bones are filled with a powerful spirit. When the stepmother kills the fish for dinner, poor Yeh-Shen is left with only the bones. Half-starved and overworked by her stepmother, Yeh-Shen's only friend is a fish with golden eyes. Her first book, Yeh-Shen, A Cinderella Story From China, is a folk tale passed down from her grandmother. Told with beauty and grace, this Cinderella story from Ai-Ling Louie is brought vividly to life by Caldecott Medal-winner Ed Young's soft, glowing illustrations.
