"Little Sky-High; Or, The Surprising Doings of Washee-Washee-Wang" by Hezekiah Butterworth is a heartwarming children's story about cultural exchange and unexpected friendship. The tale follows Sky-High, a young boy from China, as he navigates life in America with the Van Buren Family. Once a kitchen helper, Sky-High becomes a beloved figure as he shares tales and traditions from his homeland, enriching the lives of Lucy, Charles, and those around him. Overcoming the initial challenges and prejudices from neighborhood kids, his kindness and stories weave a tapestry of understanding. The twist of Sky-High being the son of a mandarin further strengthens the bond between him and his friends, setting the stage for exciting adventures together and reinforcing the profound impact of acceptance and celebrating differences.
