#TemptingTitles Day 10: #WithAVeggie based on the author‘s own childhood memories of her Chinese immigrant grandmother who also worked in a Seattle cannery in the 1960s and 70s. It shows a significantly-moving portrait of the gritty backbone behind the American dream. My review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-7RN

This story teaches young children a good lesson about how it is okay to admit the truth

This story sends the message about being able to tell the truth and how sometimes only young innocent children have that courage. The illustrations are bright and fun and the book layers the pages so that some have to be unfolded to reveal the next part of the story.

Happy Lunar New Year to all those who celebrate. I have been celebrating this holiday since I was a kid. Where we lived celebrations would happen all over the area. I loved the music, cultural outfits, parade, music & the food. My sister is living in Japan & she is enjoying the festivals. I will be having a nice glass of Soju with my book later this evening. #lunar #lunarnewyear #tiger

Well I‘m far away from my bookshelves so here‘s a pic of a book I bought from an indie thrift online seller. It was in terrible condition. Work typically sucks up my life so I shop only online for everything except groceries. Mostly I‘m an elibrary borrower. 🤷‍♀️

Thank you @Soubhiville for the #authoramonth challenge. Although, I only managed to read two of her books, I came away with an increased appreciation of not only her talent, but of her as a person. Thanks to Litsy, I watched the Netflix documentary about Amy Tan which is well done . #amytan
