Tony is the only Chinese boy in his Bronx neighborhood. If that weren't enough to get the local bullies' attention, he also has a weight problem. He gets back at his tormentors by caricaturing them in a graffitimural, but Tony's revenge only brings him more trouble: his parents decide to send him to Shanghaifor the summer to work for his uncle. While there, Tony meets a mysterious old artist, the painter Zhu Qizhan. Includes a note about Qizhan and a time line of his life.
