Double Happiness

48 pp. | Chronicle | August, 2015 | Trade ISBN 978-1-4521-2918-1 $16.99
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Alina Chau. A sweet picture book in verse (with poem titles in Chinese and English) explores the feelings of Chinese American siblings who move from San Francisco to a colder, rural home. Nai Nai (grandmother) gives them each a present for "double happiness": special boxes to be filled with memories connecting their old house to their new. Chau's vibrant watercolors combine Chinese themes and American scenes.
