About this title

Synopsis

In this early chapter book in the popular Confetti Kids series, Mei's little brother is turning 100 days old and there will be a big party. Mei is determined to find the perfect gift for the special day.

Five friends from diverse backgrounds learn how to navigate common childhood challenges, new experiences, and the world around them in the realistic and kid-friendly Confetti Kids early chapter books.

In this story, Mei's family is throwing a 100-days birthday party for her little brother--a traditional Chinese celebration after the arrival of a baby. Mei's grandma is in town for the festivities and teaches Mei about the different customs. Mei can't wait for the party, but she worries about what to give her little brother. With help from her friends and grandma, Mei discovers that the best gifts are those from the heart.
