About the Author:
Nancy Carlson has written and illustrated many beloved books for young readers.
From School Library Journal:
PreSchool-Grade 2--A young girl introduces herself to readers: "My family was formed by adoption, so I look just like... me!" She goes on to tell the story of her move from an undisclosed Asian country. She describes her experiences with her family, the activities she enjoys, and her thoughts about her birth parents. In the end, she says that wherever she goes she will always have her family by her side. Carlson has selected a topic that's in great demand. Unfortunately, this effort falls flat. The text is lively but sounds too adult and too preachy to ring true as a child's voice. Some will view the cartoon illustrations of the main character as stereotypical. Her eyes are drawn as slanted lines and look closed on most of the pages, while the non-Asian faces have large dots for eyes and look wide open. For more successful adoption stories depicting Asian children, try Rose A. Lewis's I Love You Like Crazy Cakes(Little, Brown, 2000) and Eve Bunting's Jin Woo (Clarion, 2001).--Rachel G. Payne, New York Public Library
