About the Book Tikki Tikki Tembo
Tikki Tikki Tembo by Arlene Mosel is a children’s picture book that presents a retelling of an ancient Chinese folktale. The story centers around two brothers: Tikki Tikki Tembo, who has a long, honored name, and his younger brother, Chang, who has a much shorter name.
The tale unfolds with a series of misadventures involving the brothers falling into a well. When Chang falls in, he is quickly rescued due to his short name. However, when Tikki Tikki Tembo falls into the well, the length of his name causes delays in his rescue, leading to a longer recovery time.
The book concludes with a moral lesson on the importance of brevity and listening, and it humorously explains why Chinese names are short today.
This Page Is Under Construction
It takes a long time to gather all the data for our new book page format with more useful descriptions, themes, and activity ideas. Meanwhile, this page is active so you can order books; it just isn't quite as informative or graphically appealing as the new page will be. Thanks for understanding! :-)
