(3) 4-6 In ancient China, Ren, the spoiled son of a military commander, secretly meets with gregarious peasant boy Hu to practice archery. While the two become unlikely friends, tensions rise between the Chinese military--which is poised for a barbarian attack--and the nervous townspeople. Rich cultural details are woven into this boy-friendly adventure, full of fighting, trickery, and difficult escapes.
