The Monkey King: A Chinese story with universal appeal
The Monkey King, like many famous fictional heroes — Harry Potter, Batman, Little Orphan Annie — had an unhappy childhood. Sprung from a rock on a mythical mountain, he overcame early hardship to hone his fighting skills, learning to somersault over clouds and to turn each hair on his body into a version of his warrior self.
