Year of the Dog

Pacy and her two sisters, Lissy and Ki-Ki, all go to the same school. But they're the only Asian-American students. Then one day Melody arrives. She's an Asian-American too, and they become friends, bonding over their shared love of yummy Chinese food. As the year progresses, Pacy's luck holds strong as she overcomes the many challenges grade-school-aged children face.

Of her charming book, which seamlessly blends contemporary American and traditional Chinese cultures, author Grace Lin says, "I wrote it because this was the book I wished I had growing up." Young listeners from any background will find a lot to love about this audiobook.
