Through a child's eyes

A 3-year-old's simple but captivating view of Beijing is captured in a picture book, Yan Dongjie reports.

Before leaving Beijing, a British Saudi mom opened a window for people around the world to see China's capital through the innocent eyes of her little girl.

Lana Sultan, a 37-year-old author, translated her daughter's adventures of discovering the city, as well as her feelings and inspirations, into a bilingual book, What a Place! Expressed in simple language, the book was illustrated by a local young woman and published in Beijing in late April.
