Reading Note: Sun Wu Kung Part A

Wu Kung is an interesting character. He acts like a child in many ways. He complains and throws a tantrum when he doesn't get his way. He uses force to make others do what he wants. All throughout these stories he just does whatever he wants without a care in the world. It'd be pretty easy to do a retelling of Wu Kung as a little kid and everyone is just humoring him.

There are also several training sequences or times where he goes on a journey. It might be fun to treat these like a training montage and turn it into a Rocky type story.
