This book needed to be longer. It was too short to serve its story well. Laura and Anna's friendship needed more space to develop. Also I don't believe that Anna cannot PRONOUNCE HER OWN NAME. Seriously, what the fuck? Cheng does a pretty good job of writing Asian characters but this part of the s...

For some reason I thought this book would be about Anna's mother and her aunts, not Anna, Andee and Fan. This isn't my favorite book in the series, but it's a pretty good continuation. Anna continues to be an avid reader, but again all the authors Cheng mentions are white (with the exception of one ...

I was at first a bit hesitant to get this one. I loved the previous book and I was worried that this one might totally be different (after all the first book felt like a standalone to me).But in the end I just went for it, and I even pre-ordered the next book. I am so glad I bought this book, it was...

The first thing that struck me about Sweet Moon Baby is the beautiful illustrations. They are enchanting and whimsical in water color. Patrice Barton has amazing talent. She worked on them for the author, Karen Henry Clark who adopted a child from China and had no story to tell her about her young i...

The toddler picks up toys scattered around the feet of the two children and announces firmly, “Mine.” The baby grabs one remaining toy and tosses it into the air where it lands in the dog’s water bowl with an enormous splash. The toddler picks up all the toys and tosses them into the water bowl. The...
