This is a really cute book that I saw in a used bookstore. I love books that cross cultures so to speak and I bought this book for my nephew at the time. I think it's very important for kids growing up in one parent's culture to be exposed to the other parent's culture as much as possible and even in the simplest of ways like with this short story. It breaks apart the feeling of "foreignness" some kids feel. I liked the book a lot and so did my nephew.

A fun story and nice pictures, but the conflict resolution was sort of disappointing and silly.
