Based on the Hans Christian Andersen story: Five peas in a pod

In a small garden near the great city of Beijing, five peas rest patiently in the same shell. As the peas grow, so do their dreams. One pea longs to fly to the sun and another to the moon. Two more hope to dine with the emperor. But it is the smallest pea whose journey transforms the life of a mother and daughter. Exquisite paintings on rice paper and an eloquent retelling bring together Eastern and Western traditions. This unique rendition of the Hans Christian Andersen tale is published just in time to celebrate the two-hundredth anniversary of the great storyteller's birth
