Kai's Tea Eggs - Hardcover

by Karina Zhou (Author)

An endearing and beautifully illustrated children's book about learning to embrace our heritage and celebrating what makes us unique.

Multicultural Day is coming up at school, and Kai is nervous about sharing her family's Chinese food with her classmates. Kai's mother is excited about making special dishes, but Kai doesn't like feeling different from everyone else. Upset, she runs off on her own and meets Ming the dragon, who takes her on a magical journey to explore different parts of Chinese culture--especially all the different kinds of delicious food! With Ming's help, Kai learns about her family roots and how to celebrate all that makes her unique. Kai's Tea Eggs is a charming story for anyone who, like Kai, has felt the frustration of trying to fit in before finally learning to appreciate who they are. Ages 3 to 7.
