內容簡介: |
When Young Fu arrives with his mother in bustling 1920s
Chungking, all he has seen of the world is the rural farming
village where he has grown up. He knows nothing of city life. But
the city, with its wonders and dangers, fascinates the 13-year-old
boy, and he sets out to make the best of what it has to offer
him.
First published in 1932, Young Fu of
the Upper Yangtze was one of the earliest Newbery Medal
winners. Although China has changed since that time, Young Fu’s
experiences are universal: making friends, making mistakes, and
making one’s way in the world.
