Book Description
The Thirsty Dragon is a fantasy poem, initially seen through the eyes of a young boy who imagines himself to be on a knight's quest but then finds himself faced with the reason for his adventure! The subsequent tale reveals another story altogether and then concludes by asking the reader about the moral, with a surprising recommendation! Would you agree? For better understanding of the poem, there is an appendix included, which gives definitions, explanations, and points for further discussion. It is hoped that Elementary or Middle school teachers, homeschooler parents, tutors, or students themselves can use these developmental notes as a springboard to further subjects or explorations.

Book Description
An inside view of China's quest to become a global wine power and Bordeaux's attempt to master the thirsty dragon it helped create The wine merchants of Bordeaux and the rising entrepreneurs of China would seem to have little in common—old world versus new, tradition versus disruption, loyalty versus efficiency. And yet these two communities have found their destinies intertwined in the conquest of new markets, as Suzanne Mustacich shows in this provocative account of how China is reshaping the French wine business and how Bordeaux is making its mark on China. Thirsty Dragon lays bare the untold story of how an influx of Chinese money rescued France's most venerable wine region from economic collapse, and how the result was a series of misunderstandings and crises that threatened the delicate infrastructure of Bordeaux's insular wine trade. The Bordelais and the Chinese do business according to different and often incompatible sets of rules, and Mustacich uncovers the competing agendas and little-known actors who are transforming the economics and culture of Bordeaux, even as its wines are finding new markets—and ever higher prices—in Shanghai, Beijing, and Hong Kong, with Hong Kong and London traders playing a pivotal role. At once a tale of business skullduggery and fierce cultural clashes, adventure, and ambition, Thirsty Dragon offers a behind-the-scenes look at the challenges facing the world's most famous and prestigious wines.
