Reviews
Praise for WEI SKATES ON: "Nam's illustrations capture Wei's charming family life but are most impressive when revealing his strength and beauty on the ice; full-bleed spreads feel like slow-motion breakdowns of each jump. Any reader who has had fun chased aside by the pressure of expectations will find solace in this tale. An inspiring, invigorating story about the value of practice, perseverance-and joy!" - Kirkus Reviews Praise for LOOK UP WITH ME: "Richly imagined, beautifully designed, impressionistic biography." - School Library Journal (starred review)
