Boy spends special summer holiday with his grandpa, a sanitation worker

Fifty-nine-year-old Shan Yekuan rides his sanitation tricycle with his 8-year-old grandson on it on a street in the city of Nanjing. The pair have been living together since little Shan's parents got divorced and the grandfather has since been taking care of the little boy.

During the summer holiday, when other children were outside having fun, little Shan had to go to work with his grandfather every day, because he couldn’t be left alone at home. Despite his situation, little Shan said he is pleased to be living with his grandfather in Nanjing. (Photo/People's Daily Online)
