The 20 short stories in this collection, written from a child's point of view, reveal the various aspects of social life in China. They are stories about father-son/mother-daughter relationships, about the pain of growing up, about moral lessons, about youthful adventures--into the sophisticated adult world or incredible fantasy ones--and even about poverty, jealousy, rebellion and pride. Through a child-centered narrative, the kaleidoscope of life unfolds itself.
