recommended to Jen by: Child I was babysitting
recommends it for: Amy Tan fans/Looking for good kids book
I love Amy Tan, and when I was back in high school babysitting, the girl I was watching brought this book to me. I didn't realize Tan wrote children books and it made me very happy to see the little girl enjoy her writing. It's a very sweet story and the illustrations are beautiful (I think the cartoon series is still played on PBS if Amy Tan fans want to check it out. It's very cute.)

My kids loved the adventures of Sagwa, the Chinese Siamese Cat. Sagwa gently opens so many avenues into Chinese culture, introducing my children to the fact that there is a world beyond their front door.
