The Yuckiest Lunch Box by Debbie Min
4.0
Thank you Debbie for the free e-book copy of your picture book!
I enjoyed this cute story about cultural differences and food, especially because I know many have had similar experiences to Nari / Debbie. I really hope this book helps kids embrace their family's traditions.
This book's core message is about cultural pride and not letting the ignorance of others change how you express yourself and show your culture. Because when it's kids, they usually don't mean harm; they just don't understand.
The illustrations are cute and colourful and the facial expressions are animated.
Would be excellent as a tool in classrooms to teach some students to stand up for themselves and resist conforming to the 'dominant culture' because of peer pressure and others to be open and accepting about cultural differences.
