PreS-K–A bilingual (Mandarin and English) celebration of food and family. The book begins with a large family wondering what they should have for dinner. Each page following has one family member sharing a personal choice. At the conclusion, the table is loaded with tasty dishes that have even the puppy reaching for something to eat.

VERDICT Especially useful for children in similarly bilingual homes, this will provide all with a delicious presentation of traditional Chinese cooking.
