Synopsis
A stirring, sometimes humorous graphic novel, Gene Luen's three seemingly disparate tales involve a fabled monkey king, an awkward Chinese American boy, and the worst Chinese stereotype imaginable personified in a visiting cousin. The difficulties of being Asian American in a racist culture, conflicting senses of self, and a desire to fit in are all craftily handled without any of the usual triteness. Accompanied by stunning illustrations in striking colors, this is the 2007 Printz-winner, the first time a graphic novel has received one. Also, it was a 2006 National Book Award nominee in the Young People's Literature category.
Alternates three interrelated stories about the problems of young Chinese Americans trying to participate in the popular culture. Presented in comic book format.

Publisher's Note
A graphic novel by the author of Duncan's Kingdom alternates three interrelated stories about the problems of young Chinese Americans trying to participate in American popular culture.

Industry reviews
"Compositions are tidy and the palette is softly muted, so that even the strongest colors in the action scenes never reach the intensity of a visual assault. Kids fighting an uphill battle to convince parents and teachers of the literary merit of graphic novels would do well to share this title."
 (11/01/2006)

"[W]ith Chin-Kee's striking embodiment of ethnic confusion and self-betrayal, Gene Luen Yang has created that rare article: a youthful tale with something new to say about American youth."
 (05/13/2007)
