Tikki Tikki Tembo-No Sa Rembo-Chari Bari Ruch-Pip Peri Pembo is the full name of the firstborn son in the Chinese family of this story. As the firstborn's, his name must be spoken completely and reverently. This old folktale of what happens when the boy falls into a well and his younger brother attempts to get help is nicely retold.
