A light little smackerel of overcoming internalized racism and self-acceptance. Pretty sure the 1-stars missed the entire premise of the book. If you come across this give it quick read~

I enjoyed being able to see these 3 seemingly unrelated stories come together to convey an impactful message of cultural identity within a such brief children’s story.

Liked how he wove the different stories together, each deepening the other even before you saw how they were connected.

A great graphic novel depicting the racism that happens here in the states while also teaching of how we need to be okay with who we are and not try to change to fit in with others.

A very quick read dealing with the topic of self-identity in a novel way. The three narratives are interesting enough in their own right and my only complaint is that the climax is telegraphed in the blurb which takes the punch out. Fair warning, there is a extreme caricature of a Chinese person but it's used effectively as a necessary metaphor.
