Guan Yu Hangs Up His Seal (English-Chinese Edition): A Story of Loyalty from China’s Great Generals

Guan Yu Hangs Up His Seal (English-Chinese Edition): A Story of Loyalty from China’s Great Generals

Guan Yu Refuses Cao Cao‘s Offer, Hangs Up His Seal and Returns the Gold, Then Sets Out to Find His Sworn Brother Liu Bei — A Picture Book from the “Early Learning” Series, in Chinese and English
This is not a chapter book or a historical biography. It is a picture book for young readers—one story from a series that introduces Chinese history and legend to children through simple words and vivid illustrations. The story is about Guan Yu, one of the most famous generals in Chinese history, and a moment that defined his character: he had achieved success under Cao Cao, but when he learned where his sworn brother Liu Bei was, he hung up his seal, returned the gold and gifts, and left to find him. It is a story about loyalty, and it is told in Chinese and English side by side, so a child can read it in either language. The series, “Early Learning,” covers folk tales, myths, festivals, famous sites, and stories of great generals, wise rulers, and clever children. If you want to introduce a young reader to a classic Chinese story of loyalty in a simple, visual, bilingual format—rather than a text-heavy history book or a novel—this is it.

Detail

Meet Guan Yu — one of the most legendary generals in Chinese history, famous for his loyalty and courage.

This book tells one of his most inspiring stories: The powerful warlord Cao Cao offered Guan Yu a high-ranking title and great wealth.

In short — it's a story about choosing loyalty over riches.
