Book excerpt: When young Ming travels with his father to Qufu, the hometown of Confucius, little does he know that he will meet the famous philosopher himself! Ming and his father are in China's Qufu, Shandong Province, where the great sage Confucius was born over 2,500 years ago. While Ming's father studies the stunning historic architecture, Ming's attention is drawn to a game of Chinese checkers set up in a gazebo. As soon as he touches the checkers, he finds himself magically transported back in time to ancient Qufu. There he meets Confucius and his students, and explores with them the principles established by the renowned teacher, which remain so important in China today.
