“They are Mama and Amah and Mei-Mei. They are me. And they are beautiful.“
This is a great book to read in your classroom! It can serve as a window and/or a mirror!
pickA book featuring an Asian American girl's reflection on her eyes and her family. The illustrations depict characters from Chinese mythology (like the Monkey King). Very uplifting!
“He could get on a boat that would take him out of their reach forever, where no one would have heard of Namwon or know what his tattoo meant.”
I was not initially drawn to the book, however, as I read I began to enjoy the suspense being built. As a younger reader I think I really would have liked, “A Wish in the Dark”. There is a sense of mystery and unknown while at the same time adventure.
pickIn Christina Soonttornvat‘s 2020 Newbery winning book “A Wish in the Dark” Pong, who was born in prison, escapes and sees the world is just as wrong and unfair as the life he experienced while in prison. He makes friends along the way and experiences food, people, and life like never before. Nok (prison warden‘s daughter) hunts down Pong through Chattana and she has experiences that make her question her prior reality.
pickI chose this cookbook with the beautiful cover for recipe inspiration for #foodandlit this month. The recipes are straightforward and not too complicated with beautiful pictures of yummy food throughout. She also thoroughly explains all of the special ingredients you might need and is very nice and down to earth. Looking forward to trying a recipe or two soon. 4⭐️

Sword and sorcery fantasy which turns prophecy on its head. Interesting but I probably won't continue the series. I'm just not in the mood for sword and sorcery at the moment.
Posting this here but I‘m selling this Goldsboro special edition of The Night Ends with Fire by K.X Song, it‘s never been read, I don‘t like or care for Romantasy, it‘s a Mulan retelling. My daughter shattered her phone and she needs it replaced but I don‘t have the extra money to do that and she needs a phone because of her Cheer activities
I‘m look for $50, this covers what I paid PLUS shipping US only.
