An exquisitely illustrated story based on traditional Vietnamese folktales richly brought to life

When Jade Emperor drops two precious gems from heaven, he is devastated, and his sorrow cloaks the whole world in darkness. To get them back, his children must journey to Earth, traverse mountains and rivers, dive to the depths of the East Sea, and petition the Dragon Kings. With such a long and dangerous quest ahead, will they be able to restore the gems and bring light back into the world?
