Synopsis

The Khan of Persia's favourite wife has died, and Kublia Khan, Emperor of all China, decrees that Princess Kokachin shall replace her. What is more, Kokachin's escort to Perisa is to be the great Venetian traveller, Marco Polo! Kokachin's diary describes her long, dangerous sea voyage beset by storms, disease, pirate attacks - and when eventually she reaches Persia, surprising news awaits her...Based on Marco Polo's 13th -century journals, Heather Maisner's text and Sheila Moxley's evocative illustrations re-create a fascinating time when east and west travelled side by side.
