Young Fu of the Upper Yangtze

release date: Apr 12, 2016
Young Fu of the Upper Yangtze
A thirteen-year-old boy in 1920s China learns about hard work and life in the big city in this classic coming-of-age-story. 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 thirteen-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.
