(4) 4-6 Teddy's little brother Bobby seems destined for greatness, but Teddy seems destined to inherit his dad's fish store. He wants to prove himself while camping with Uncle Curtis, but all three have farcical bad luck with rain, rocks, mosquitoes, and even a skunk. Periodic life lessons add to the slightly formulaic feel, but Yep's yarning about San Francisco's Chinatown is entertaining.
