(2) K-3 Illustrated by Simon Ng. Andrews sets her ten tales in North America and bestows immigrant status on their protagonists. Swift and taut, these stories succeed not just as cautionary entertainments but also as fictional artifacts of the trials of assimilation. Each story's lustrous if brooding main image bleeds onto its facing page, reinforcing the notion of muddled boundaries underlying each tale.
