A rowdy, bossy child wreaks havoc all day long in his home and in the Chinese village where he lives. The story highlights the daily life activities of a family in a rural community in China. Children should with some discussion be able to identify similarities and differences between their family and the one in the book. Just below the surface lies a good discussion on the quality of a leader.
What would it be like to live in a place where the boss was real and everyone had to do what the boss wanted? What would life be like, would people be happy?
