The Tanghulu Teacher: A Paper-Puppet Short

A short animation adapted from a true memory from the author's grad-school days: "His Tanghulu." A tall, unforgiving teacher who never pulls punches grading papers is spotted walking ahead of his students, backpack on, happily eating a tanghulu skewer — while they sneak along behind, stifling their laughter. Told in the author's signature "walking paper puppet" style, it suits personal memories, campus stories, or warm-hearted social clips.
