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.

The story is precious and the illustrations are delightful.
