The Journey to the West is one of the “Four Great Classical Novels”of China. However written in the sixteenth century with ancient words, it is hard for children to read. Zhang Jiahua, a renowned children's literature writer, has repeatedly studied and apprehended the content and spirit of the original work. And thinking from the perspective of children, he cuts the contents that are redundant and some others that are not suitable for children to read, particularly those violent and cruel scenes, creates a brand new Journey to the West for Children. The Journey to the West tells not only a journey to the west to retrieve Buddhist scriptures but also stories about spiritual growth, which is hard for young readers to perceive when they first read the book. The author adds detailed and appropriate explanations, making the intended meaning of the stories further clarified, and also making it more understandable how the Monkey King Wukong strengthens his willpower while defeating demons and ghosts and finally becomes the “Victorious Fighting Buddha”.
