Journeys to the East - The River Dragon King is a charming story and a learning experience on DVD.
Jason and Jenny are brother and sister. The siblings set out on an adventure that begins with reading a book, The River Dragon King. As soon as they start the story they realize that they are in the story...
The animation is basic. The story is interesting. The way the story weaves learning Chinese into the Chinese story is very clever. Learning a new language with little effort is wonderful.
