Why read it?
1 author picked Amy Wu and the Perfect Bao as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I can’t think of this book without picturing my own little girl when she was 3 years old with pigtails sticking out, just like Amy Wu.
She and I read this over and over again to the point that she could quote the whole book. It is such a sweet story about family traditions and pushing through the challenge it can be for little hands to learn how to do something new.
The story is precious and the illustrations are delightful.
From Wendy's list on reads to your kids that you'll also enjoy.
