Minli is a young, bright, kind girl from a poor family in a china. Most of her happiness comes from the stories that her father tells her at night. Minli enjoys these stories so much that one day she decides to help her family by finding one of the characters from a story that her father told her. She has to travel to and across to Never Ending Mountain in order to bring her family riches. On the way she finds several new friends that help her get to her final, yet interesting destination.
This story is very similar to the American Version of The Wizard of Oz. I would ask to the students to compare and contrast the two stories using any graphic organizer of their choice.
