“Getting her fortune told by a Taiwanese belly-button grandmother (who feels up her navel) instead of attending the spring dance is just one of the joys of being Patty Ho, a covertly snarky hapa (half Asian, half white) struggling with her dual heritage. Pattys domineering mother is determined to make her a good Taiwanese girl. Gangly Patty, no China doll, longs to be white like her long-gone father…readers will find a compelling narrative, and a spunky, sympathetic heroine. This book should enjoy wide appeal.” ??VOYA
