The Magical Clay Doll
A Legend Retold in English and Chinese
Rooted in Chinese folklore, this story follows a young boy who uses creativity and courage to save his village. A strange fog rolls through Qiqi’s village, taking many of the village’s children with it, so Qiqi starts making clay dolls to play with instead. When one of his dolls breaks, he repairs it; the doll comes to life and reveals herself to be a magical fairy. As the fog closes in again, Qiqi and the fairy fight together to save his friends.
