He lives in a small hut and tends the rice fields for his master. While working in a paddy field up to his knees in mud he finds a beautiful pot. He gives it to his wife to store their best cooking rice. He soon discovers it is a magic pot that will make him very rich. Unfortunately, greed takes hold and things start to go wrong. He is cruel to his family and eventually he is left to bury his dead mother. Will Yip Han Lo be a happy, rich man or will his greed leave him alone and destitute.

Peter Havranek

Peter Havranek was born and brought up in East Africa. He developed a love of storytelling from listening to his mother telling traditional stories while on long, hot car journeys through Africa.

He spent his whole career as a primary school teacher in Wiltshire where he soon became headteacher. His story telling skills were further enhanced through showing other teachers how to incorporate story telling across the curriculum.

Now retired, he and his wife Susan spend their time split between their homes in Wiltshire and the Vendee in France. He has two children and three grandchildren.
