From Publishing Perpectives:

The Red Piano Won't Play in China
By Andrew Wilkins

When I bought the English language rights to a beautiful children's picture book, The Red Piano, from French publisher Editions du Sorbier earlier this year, I wasn't really thinking I would have censorship problems.

But then I had to print it. I contacted my usual printer in China and told them about the book. (read on ...)
