本书是一部少年小说,讲述了聪明且富有商业头脑的主人公在父亲去世之后,挑起家庭生活的重担。他尝试了几乎所有街头小贩的生意。面对现实的困境和生活的艰辛,保罗不屈不挠,依靠勤劳、诚信,赢得了顾客和伙伴的尊重。经过努力,保罗最后有了属于自己的货摊,并开始了新的生活。
Young Paul is determined to win a better life for his mother, and he sets out on a whirlwind of entrepreneurial jobs to try to make a good living. From selling candy packages outside the post office to neckties from a cart, he will try his hand at anything to turn a profit. A rousing tale of moral triumph and free trade, "Paul the Peddler" is Horatio Alger at his best.
