In faraway China, the emperor and his court are enchanted by the beautiful song of the nightingale. Disappointed with the nightingale's plain appearance, the emperor chooses an ornately bejeweled mechanical bird. Years later, he learns to value the real treasure: the nightingale's melody.

For children in grades K to 5.
