Bookroo's summary

In a Hakka village in Taiwan, children discover an unusual ally in their quest for success—a dog who becomes their cherished reading partner. As they share stories, deep bonds form, revealing the joys and sorrows of being a minority within a minority. Can these friendships help them navigate the complexities of their world and achieve their dreams? This tale explores the power of companionship and the bittersweet nature of success.

From the publisher

A welcome addition to dual language literature, the story is about growing up among the Hakka people in Taiwan. In order to succeed, it is important for children to have a reading partner. But in this case, it is a dog with which the children develop deep friendships as they share their books with him. A sub-current to the main story is one of being a minority within a minority and success, which though longed for, inevitably contains sadness wrapped within its joy.
