Praise for this book

"Robeson's spare text is poetic, while Wu's hazy illustrations lend a reminiscent feel. Young readers are given the opportunity to learn a few Chinese words sprinkled throughout the text. Even better, they can indulge in warm feelings of friendship and how wonderful it is to be two."Booklist
