The Star Maker

by Laurence Yep

Tired of being bullied and called names by his older cousin eight-year old Artie foolishly boosts that not only will he have firecrackers for Chinese New Year's he'll have enough firecrackers for everyone. Uncle Chester promises to help Artie keep his word but time is running out and it doesn't look good. Yep develops Artie and Uncle Chester nicely as well as the background of the colorful San Francisco Chinatown of the 1950s.

2 of 5 Stars.
