In the black velvety mantle of night, two stars fall in love, only to be parted; while in a far-away time, a lonely and mistreated girl finds herself at a ball in a dress of sea green silk and a kingfisher cloak: two beautiful, magical tales from old China,The Weaver Girl and the Cowherd, and The Magic Fishbones, enchantingly retold by Gabrielle Wang and elegantly illustrated by David Allan.
