By describing the impressive and unforgettable six-year primary school life of the boy Sangsang, the leading character, the story narrates the entanglement between the five children Sangsang, Tuhe, Du Xiaokang, Xima, Zhi Yue and the teachers Jiang Yilun and Bai Que in Yau Ma Tei as well as the painful growth process. In the six years, Sangsang witnesses or directly takes part in a series of seemingly common but weepy and touching stories: pure affection between boys and girls without flaws, sorrow and elegance of an unfortunate boy struggling with misfortune, the personal glory of an old man glaring at the last moment, the deep and graceful comprehension of life by experiencing death and the confusing and complicated emotional entanglement among the adults...All these are displayed clearly and hazily in the world of young Sangsang.）
