American Born Chinese

American Born Chinese by Gene Luen Yang is this year's Printz Award winner. I read this graphic novel on our snow day this week and really didn't expect to like it so much! There are three story lines, including a fable of the Monkey King, carried through until they are all tied together at the end. American Born Chinese delivers a message of not only being happy with what you are, but making the most of what you are.

Try it, I think you'll like it, even if you aren't a graphic novel fan.
