But the villagers are smart, and a plan to revolt against the Mongols begins to form with a message tucked into the Mid-Autumn Festival mooncakes: On the 15th day of the 8th lunar month, on the day of the full moon, commence attack at midnight. It's up to brave Su-Ling to deliver the message to her uncle without getting caught by the Mongol guards. This thrilling tale based on an ancient Chinese legend keeps kids on the edges of their seats as they cheer on Su-Ling to complete her mission to deliver the message in the mooncake.
