Apple Pie Fourth of July: A Picture Book About a Chinese American Girl, Her Family, and Fireworks for Kids (Ages 4-7) - Softcover
Synopsis
A lighthearted but meaningful look at the very American experience of mixed cultures.
No one wants Chinese food on the Fourth of July, I say. We're in apple-pie America, and my parents are cooking chow mein! They just don't get it. Americans do not eat Chinese food on the Fourth of July. Right?
Shocked that her parents are cooking Chinese food to sell in the family store on this all-American holiday, a feisty Chinese-American girl tries to tell her mother and father how things really are. But as the parade passes by and fireworks light the sky, she learns a lesson of her own.
"Explores the child's experience of straddling two cultures—and serves up an ending as satisfying as sweet-and-sour pork and a crusty dessert." (Washington Post)
