(2) YA Also edited by Elsie Chapman. Fifteen authors of East and South Asian descent present original short stories inspired by culture-specific tales from their childhoods, followed by information about their source material. The stories achieve emotional depth and connection while showcasing each storyteller's unique literary voice. The co-editors' choice to preserve culturally authentic words and expressions allows fluidity in the storytelling and shows respect to young readers.
