Seven Chinese SistersMove over, brothers – here’s an improved version of the now classic (though annoyingly exoticized) tale of Chinese siblings … this one’s all about girl power featuring seven sisters, each with remarkable talents, who band together to save the seventh and youngest. But what I really want to know is what happens to the scrawny, pathetic dragon? Does Sixth Sister actually remember to ever feed him her delicious noodle soup?
