Summary
Privileged， sensitive and smart， Eric Teo learns by accident that he has a Peranakan grandmother – a woman with a dark past who isn’t allowed to see him。 Curiosity， together with simmering tensions at home， drives him to go on a search for her to unearth the truth。
Rajah – thoughtful， unflappable and visually impaired – lives modestly with his music-loving family， who do their best to help him live a normal life。
When the two boys meet， each brings with him something the other must learn， and a friendship is forged that will change them both。 Then， a tragic event occurs， and their newfound bond is put to the test。 Set in modern-day Singapore， Big Tree in a Small Pot explores the meanings of friendship， family， loss and the values we live by。

Sad ending for the book。 A chance encounter between 2 boys on the train - one with a privileged background and the other with a normal but humble background。 Eric， the one with the privileged background， and Rajah， the one with a humble background。

This is the story of Eric who is from a well off family but with no family bonding。 He discovered that he have a grandmother that he never knew and also he seen how his best friend family bonds。 The plot and the meaning of this story is good。 However， it doesn't feel logical。 Eric is a teenager。 At his age， he should be bursting with hormones。 Instead， he seems to be very mature for his age。 In fact he is like an old sage 。 Wise beyond his years。 。Anyway， it was a short and ok kind of read。 Wish This is the story of Eric who is from a well off family but with no family bonding。 He discovered that he have a grandmother that he never knew and also he seen how his best friend family bonds。 The plot and the meaning of this story is good。 However， it doesn't feel logical。 Eric is a teenager。 At his age， he should be bursting with hormones。 Instead， he seems to be very mature for his age。 In fact he is like an old sage 。 Wise beyond his years。 。Anyway， it was a short and ok kind of read。 Wish the author would elaborate more about Eric's grandmother。 。。。more
