The Little Monk by Lydia Lin Book Summary

Wawa is not an ordinary boy. He was born to a native couple on the Island of Formosa during the brief Spanish colonial rule in the 17th Century. His father, Yotas, became a fugitive for having involved in a failed uprising against the Spanish troops. While on the run with his mother, Maya, Wawa was separated from her and later adopted by a Chinese Shaolin monk. Now at the age of 12, he is already well trained in Buddhism and kung fu skills. He aspires to become a learned monk so as to be able to help the unfortunate people. On a trip to visit another Shaolin master, from whom he is to learn the unique Rock Monkey Kung Fu, Wawa meets Yotas by chance, without either one's being aware of their kinship. He also encounters his adversary who is helping the conquistadors capture Yotas. Will Wawa be able to use his kung fu skills to save Yotas? Will his family be reunited? To find out, read this interesting story that seeks to promote religious tolerance and cross-racial understanding.
