In November 1979, pupils in England were able to watch a new TV program called Monkey. Most of themwere hearing this story for the first time. However, this story is not new to Chinese children. The Monkey King or Sun Wukong is the main character in the traditional Chinese book Journey to the West.
The Monkey King is not just any normal monkey. In fact, he sometimes does not even
look like a monkey! This is because he can
make 72 changes to his shape and size, turning himself into different animals and objects. But unless he can hide his tail, he cannot turn
himself into a person. To fight bad people, the Monkey King uses a magic stick. Sometimes
he can make the stick so small
that he can keep it in his ear. At other times,
he is able to make it big and long.
The Monkey King has excited the children
of China for many years. And as soon as the
TV program came out more than 30 years ago, Western children became interested in
reading this story because the clever Monkey
King keeps fighting to help the weak and
never gives up.
