Book Cover & Preview Text
Once upon a time, there lived a beautiful princess.
Every morning she would rise early and feast upon delicious fruits.
She would then dress and stroll through the mountains of her home and along the bustling streets to the river.
One day, as she strolled along the avenue, she happened upon a monkey selling large dumplings by the side of the road. Feeling a little hungry, she decided to stop at the monkey's stall and buy some buns for her family.
"Hello, beautiful princess," said the monkey, "would you like one of my magic buns?"
"Magic? Oh, yes," she exclaimed as the monkey handed her a large green bun dripping with sweet liquid.
