About the Author
Maggie P. Chang grew up in Kansas, where she constantly had her nose in a book and art supplies close by. She began her career in art education, but after teaching the most fabulous and talented teens at LaGuardia Arts High School (a.k.a. the Fame school), she was inspired to follow her own passion for children’s books. This Taiwanese American is the author-illustrator of the Geraldine Pu series and is also the cofounder of two education nonprofits. Maggie lives in California with her husband, their daughter, and their dog, Benihana.
Reviews
PreS-Gr 2—In this start to a new graphic novel series, a young Taiwanese American girl faces lunchroom bullies with the help of her lunchbox. Geraldine Pu speaks English, Mandarin Chinese, and Taiwanese with her family at home. At school, Geraldine loves lunchtime best because every day her grandmother Amah packs her a special lunch in Biangdang, a purple lunchbox that she's lovingly covered with stickers. With a zipper for a mouth and fasteners that resemble eyes, Biangdang brims with personality as he narrates the story. One day a classmate dubs Geraldine's lunch "GROSS!" and his close-minded opinion spreads to other kids. Geraldine must bravely face down intolerance and ridicule in order to remain true to her culture and heritage. The graphic format will be enticing to younger readers, and the distinct panels make it easy to follow the action. The art is static but uses sound effects and close-ups to create an intimate tone as Geraldine wrestles with both her love for Biangdang and her culture, food, and family and the shame she feels when her classmates taunt her. The book includes a section with "Words from Geraldine's World" and a recipe for Bao from Amah's kitchen. VERDICT Early readers will sink their teeth into this refreshing story. Pair it with K-Fai Steele's A Normal Pig for a story time highlighting lunchtime inclusion.—Laken Hottle, Providence Community Lib.
