"The Five Chinese Brothers," which I first discovered in a grade school library when I was in second grade!. The brothers could do things like fall asleep on a bonfire, and one of them could suck all of the water out of the ocean and hold it in his mouth while the others gathered up as many fish as they could which I found to be a delightfully funny idea!. When I was working in the local schools a few years ago, I was glad to see that most of the grade school libraries still owned copies of "The Five Chinese Brothers" and that some young students were still checking those copies out!.
(For someone who went to "one of the worst high schools in the State of Texas," you write far better than most people who use this venue!. I doubt many of the people you went to high school with could write a complete sentence with proper punctuation!. It has gotten to the point where most introductory composition students in community colleges can't do either!.)Www@Enter-QA@Com
