BR 1-03: The Dragon and the Phoenix

" This is the story of Dragon Mountain, Phoenix Mountain and a shining lake. " (p.2-3)


This story is based on " The Bright Pearl ", it is a folktale from China.
In Chinese stories, dragons and phoenixes are often shown together. Chinese dragons have lots of magical powers and can even fly by wings.

I thought that the picture (in this book) is beautiful, and the title is very interesting! So I think I want to read this book, and I took up this book. I think that everyone has knowing a Dragon and a Phoenix. I had knowing it too. I had reading books that the Dragon and the Phoenix appear in a book. I like that book, and I like Chinese old story so much. This story is very easy, but this story was really fun too! You can't foresee the story line of this book. I really was surprised what the ending of this story. I thought that there are real in this book. Please try to read this book! I recommend this book!
