Bibliography
Li Lun: Lad of Courage (1947)
Because of his fear of the sea, a young Chinese boy is sent to a distant mountain where he proves his bravery. Banished to a mountaintop to learn to grow rice, Li Lun proves his courage as he fights the elements and his own loneliness to make his rice seedling flourish where no one else has for generations.
