(3) K-3 Illustrated by Chris Soentpiet. This sequel to Coolies documents the experience of a Chinese immigrant boy as he joins his brothers to work at their store in San Francisco's Chinatown. The handsome, luminous paintings reflect the historical setting and add interest to the otherwise formulaic story. This is both a useful and attractive addition to a history curriculum. Reading list.
