One Is a Drummer: A Book of Numbers

32 pp. | Chronicle | May, 2004 | Trade ISBN 0-8118-3772-6 $$14.95
(3) PS Illustrated by Grace Lin. This rhyming book counts to ten, highlighting items or activities related to Chinese culture. "One is a drummer / One is a race / One is a dragon boat / that wins first place!" An endnote explains such terms as mahjong and dim sum. Lin makes good use of colorful patterns in her gouache illustrations, which feature a multiethnic cast of characters.
