In this incredible chapter book, we are following alongside Chengli who is traveling the silk road in hopes of finding out more information about his father. This is definitely a story for older, more advanced, students because of the language being used and also because of the length of the story. The story itself is important and insightful, with the reader being able to learn a lot about Chinese culture and about the silk road. This would be an excellent read-aloud novel or even an individual read for the students. My only complaint would be the lack of images, but it does not hinder the ability to imagine what is going on within the story. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

Chengli is an orphaned errand boy who lives in Chang'an China in 630 A.D. His mother has died from illness and his father is presumed dead after disappearing into the desert when Chengli was a baby. Now thirteen, Chengli feels ready for independence. He is drawn to the desert, beckoned by the howling of strange winds and the hope of learning something about his father--who he was and how he died. Chengli joins a caravan to travel down the merchant route known as the Silk Road, but it is a dangerous life, as his father knew. The desert is harsh, and there are many bandits--bandits interested in Chengli's caravan because a princess, her servants, and royal guards are traveling with them. But the desert is full of amazing places and life-changing experiences, as the feisty princess learns the meaning of friendship and Chengli learns the heroism of which he is capable.
