Cleversticks assembly playscript

Assembly script based on Cleversticks by Bernard Ashley. The story is based on a Chinese child who is new to the class and doesn't speak much English. He feels withdrawn as everyone has a special talent apart from him, until he shows the class how to use chopsticks. A nice story/play to do as part of Chinese New Year.
