#DearDecember Day 21: The author, San Souci, noted that the The Song of Mulan #WarriorWoman was created during a period of unrest as the Chinese and the Tartars (or Tatars) who lived beyond the northern border in what is now known to be Mongolia and Manchuria continued to strive for dominance and power.

Read this book and watch the movie! It‘s such an empowering story, and it‘ll make your heart warm.

Side note: Robert D. San Souci (whose book inspired the beloved movie) came to my elementary school for three years consecutively and I have signed books. This is also my *favorite* Disney movie.

Admittedly, I haven't read this book. But I love the Disney movie, and I think that Mulan is a perfect pick for the #kickassheroines prompt. #day2 #seasonsreadings2016

PurpleyPumpkin @thegirlwiththelibrarybag Isn't it a great movie! This and Beauty and the Beast are my favs. 7y
thegirlwiththelibrarybag @PurpleyPumpkin, I'm also obsessed with Lady and the Tramp 😏 I dressed up as Belle for my 21st (ages ago now) it was a fun night! I love the songs in Milan! (I have most of them on my iPod) 7y
