利奥在大连
Lì'ào Zài Dàlián
Leo in Dalian
Leo is eight, English, and knows three words of Chinese when his family moves to Dalian for a year. Ten everyday conversations -- a lift, a fruit stall, a taxi, a menu, a first school day, a doctor, a phone call -- with Pipi from downstairs and Grandma Pan, who corrects his tones.
