Review: Must read to raise inclusive and tolerant children - Sure, here's a rewritten review: This beautiful and touching picture book is a must-read for any parent who wants to teach their children about the importance of accepting and celebrating diversity. The story follows a young girl who realizes that her Asian-shaped eyes are different from her peers', but with the help of the strong women in her life, she learns to love and embrace her unique features. As a parent, I appreciate the powerful message of self-love and empowerment that this book teaches. The illustrations are stunning and my kids love looking at the pictures and imagining new stories. Even though we're not Asian American, the book's message of accepting and celebrating differences is universal and important for all children to learn. Sadly, stereotypes and negative attitudes towards different cultures still exist in our world, but this book is a powerful tool for teaching empathy, tolerance, and inclusion. It's a great way to start important conversations with our kids about accepting and celebrating diversity. I highly recommend this book to any parent looking to raise inclusive and tolerant children.
Review: Beautiful - a story that many can relate to. - This is a beautiful book both written and illustrated, and like many other Asians, I wish I had this then when I was growing up and thrilled to read this to my (biracial) daughter. Something that readers should know - this book is not, and cannot, be everything to everyone. The reviewers that warn about this not applying to transracial adoption seem to center their own whiteness and not understand this book isn’t meant to be a completely universal story in all aspects — like pretty much all books out there. I also believe the family featured in this book is Chinese and the book contains Chinese elements, and as a non-Chinese Asian person I find this story beautiful, affirming, and touching, and a way to have my daughter both see herself and learn about other names and cultures. The sad thing about the lack of representation in children’s literature is that it puts a lot of pressure on the few books out there to meet everyone’s needs. I understand the disappointment when it doesn’t meet your own expectations and hopes (and I do think it’s helpful to share this with others), but it seems the review ratings should be based on the writing and quality of the story, not on how much your own life doesn’t match up.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A reflection on identity plus gorgeous illustrations
*by H***I on September 26, 2021*

First of all, it’s a BIG and beautifully illustrated book. It’s as tall as an 8x11in sheet of paper (see photo). This is a story not of insecurity or overcoming it, but of seeing what makes one different and knowing in your bones that that is beautiful. It’s a reflection of Chinese cultural identity, of maternal connections, and of the preciousness of close familial ties. Technically, there isn’t much of a plot here, and that works. It’s more like a poem about embracing one’s Chinese heritage. Things to note: 1. Grandma here is referred to as Amah, which is a Hokkien term (and maybe other dialects, too). Mom is Mama and the younger sister is Mei-mei, both of which are Mandarin-ish. 2. There are lovely illustrations of Chinese mythical characters such as the Monkey King, Chang’e, etc., so be prepared to research stories in case kids ask who they are. 3. Some words like oolong, sapphires, baubles, etc. pop up, which might need further explanation for younger readers. Nevertheless, I love it and will be gifting this to my nieces who also have beautiful eyes that kiss in the corners!
