About the book
Life of a Genius paints a dynamic portrait of ancient China while providing a timeless moral example of a life guided by principles of humanity and virtue, influenced by tenets from Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism. It artfully weaves the narrative of Su Dongpo's life in the eleventh century with passages of his original poetry and excerpts from the Taoist classic, The Tao Te Ching. Written and illustrated in exquisite detail by celebrated author and illustrator Demi, best-known for her award-winning multicultural stories and biographies.
