From Luck of the Dragon, Chapter 252:
Mikilani had clearly resented being placed in a high chair. The infant red panda had demonstrated his displeasure by first slapping the tray that held him in place and then pounding on it with his fists and yelling in a random mixture of Spontoonie, Chinese, and English, to the effect that he wanted his mother to get him out of the “trap.” There were a few times when food and drink orders had to be repeated due to the racket he was raising.
When her nephew’s bowl of stewed breadfruit and mashed banana was brought to the table, Shin actually looked nervous. She was sitting closest to her older brother.
Fortunately, Mikilani appeared to be a gourmand, and maybe two-thirds of his food was very happily accepted when Peng-wum spoon-fed him. That left the other third, most of which ended up liberally spread around his portion of the table and all over his father.
____________________________________________________________
Most of Ni Mikilani's young life (he's about a year and a half old) has been spent in Spontoonie longhouses, where there isn't usually a lot of Western furniture. High chairs were a closed book to him, and if he'd had his way, a banned and burned book as well.
This is another scene a bit after the event described above, and his father has set his shirt aside so his son won't ruin it. Mikilani looks singularly unimpressed with his father's efforts on his behalf.
