This book was ok but it could have been better. I liked that it told the entire story so fans of Mulan will definitely enjoy that but it was more of a detailed summary of the events that happened. There wasn't much dialogue which left out a lot of the humor from the movie. The pictures were great though and taken right from the movie. It was a quick read and I'm sure Disney fans and fans of Mulan will enjoy this book.
Filled with beautiful illustrations, this book is based on the well known disney adaptation of Mulan; the girl who dressed as a man to stop her father from going to war, and by doing so, gained the highest level of honour and repeat for her family and herself from the whole of China.
