Gifts from the Chan Family!

My aunt Karen and her family sent me *more* wonderful Chinese themed books. Karen, you must be doing your book research, because I've never come across some of these!
Moonbeams, Dumplings & Dragon Boats has lots of interesting info, traditional stories and recipes. I Love You Like Crazy Cakes is my absolute favorite! I tear up every time I read it!

The other books are going to be great as Ellie becomes school-aged: Chinese Children's Favorite Stories has lots of traditional tales (Monkey King, Moon Goddess, Guan Yin, etc.), Yeh-Shen is a Chinese Cinderella story, The Legend of Mu Lan has the story in English and Chinese characters...too cool! There are some beautiful illustrations in all of these books.
Karen and Jack, thank you so much for all your support and for starting off such a wonderful treasury of books for Ellie! Everyone else, check out these titles for your little darlings! Good stuff!=)
