Journey to the West

Journey to the West is one of the Chinese Noble Classics.

In ancient China a magical monkey appears, creating chaos everywhere he goes. The only way to put his tricks and talents to good use is to make him protector of Xuanzang, a young and handsome monk determined to travel from China to India in search of precious scriptures.

Monkey and his fellow disciples, Piggy and Sandy, have to protect Xuanzang from monsters and demons who think they can live forever just by taking bites out of the monk.

Can Xuanzang and his loyal disciples reach India safely and find what they seek? Do they have enough confidence and courage to conquer the demons, both those lurking around them and those within their own hearts?

Full of humour and adventure, Journey to the West is a story of self-discovery and the pursuit of excellence. Written by Chinese scholar Wu Cheng’en more than four hundred years ago, it reflects everyone’s pilgrimage toward truth, peace, and beauty.

If you enjoy this, you can find three other Real Reads Chinese Classics: Dream of the Red Chamber, The Water Margin, and The Three Kingdoms.

A fantastic story!

I loved it, I've seen many of the movies and shows about it. But I greatly enjoyed the story. I'm an going to buy the books as well.

Not bad Kid

I’m grew interested in the story of Sun Wukong  so I’m glad that I listen to Journey to the West, it’s odd, but interesting to listen to.

Great telling of this timeless story

This is one of the oldest stories, and I liked everything about it. Thank you.

Very enjoyable

This was a great book for passive listening! This is a great bedtime story for children.

Short but amazing

wonderful short book, the author has a way of sucking you in and making you think twice about the choices you make in your own adventure of life.
