“In this retelling of an ancient Chinese poem, a writer imagines the doomed love between the earthly and heavenly…Ye’s illustrations, however, are lush in detail and lovely in strangeness….multipage gatefolds stunningly capture both the movement in the illustrations and the scale of the tale. Lavish illustrations elevate this adaptation of a classic.” — Kirkus Reviews
“The illustration and format …distinguish this large volume, enhancing the drama and scope of the story. Several stunning illustrations are presented on extended gatefolds that open up to almost mural size. They evoke the river….sure to intrigue readers and may encourage further examination of traditional Chinese art and literature.” — School Library Journal
