Kwan Ming makes three friends on the journey from China to the New World. When opportunities for work arise, Kwan Ming lets his friends have the best jobs, leaving him as a helper to a mean boss. Kwan's friends then help him meet three challenges the boss gives him--to find a suit that won't tear, boots that never wear out, and bread that always stays fresh. Based on the book by Paul Yee.
