About this book
A young boy travels from rural China to San Francisco in 1903 to join his father who lives and works in Chinatown. Everything about America is strange to him- the language, the clothes, the houses, the food, the customs, and the calendar. He learns to adapt, makes new friends, and experiences the great San Francisco earthquake of 1906. Throughout the book he and his fellow Chinese share many folktales and customs from their home country.
