Asian/Pacific American Librarians Association Honor Book In this
powerful parable that explores the impact of paying it forward, a
young girl named Mai inspires a chain of events that brings good
things back to her. When you do a good deed, it will come back to
you. Mai loves feeding the caged birds near the temple but dreams
that one day she'll see them fly free. Then she meets a young girl
named Thu, and shares the joy of feeding the birds with her. This
sets a chain of good deeds in motion that radiates throughout her
village and beyond. Set in Vietnam, Roseanne Thong's inspiring
story is elegantly illustrated with watercolor on wood by Eujin Kim
Neilan.
A little girl's urban neighborhood becomes a discovery ground for
all things round, square, and rectangular in this lyrical picture
book. Most items are Asian in origin, others universal: round rice
bowls and a found pebble, square dim sum and the boxes that the
pizzas come in, rectangular Chinese lace and a very special pencil
case. Bright, whimsical art accompanies the narrative rhyme, and a
short glossary adds cultural significance to the objects featured
in the book. Perfect for read-alouds or one-on-one sharing.
In this lively picture book that Booklist described as "a cheerful
color-concept book that presents a slice of Latino culture through
food and fun," children discover a world of colors all around them:
red is spices and swirling skirts, yellow is masa, tortillas, and
sweet corn cake. Many of the featured objects are Latino in origin,
and all are universal in appeal. With rich, boisterous
illustrations, fun-to-read rhyming text, and an informative
glossary, this playful concept book will reinforce the colors found
in every child's day!
