Klappentext

From the creator of the beloved webcomic The Oxherd Boy comes a gorgeously illustrated original folktale about a little boy who must use his big imagination to help solve big problems.
 
It’s a beautiful day in Ah-Fu’s village, and all he wants to do is fly his kite, ride in his grandfather’s oxcart, and have a picnic. But a tangled string, a busy aunt, a fallen tree, and more threaten to ruin Ah-Fu’s chances of enjoying this perfect day with the people he loves.
 
Can little Ah-Fu come up with creative ways to help his friends and family, or will his plans for a nice day be ruined?
 
Inspired by traditional Chinese philosophy and told alongside gorgeous illustrations, this modern fable encourages readers of all ages to use inventive problem-solving strategies and lend a helping hand wherever they can.
