Description
Measuring Up by Lily LaMotte is a heartwarming graphic novel about food, family and finding your place in the world. Twelve-year-old Cici has just moved to Seattle from Taiwan and wants to celebrate her grandmother's 70th birthday together. She comes up with a plan to bring A-má to her by winning a kids' cooking contest, but things don't go as smoothly as she hoped.
Cici must navigate her new school, make friends and find a way to fit in while also learning about her Taiwanese heritage and finding the perfect recipe for her grandmother's special day. With its themes of identity, culture and family, Measuring Up is a story that will resonate with anyone who has ever felt like they don't quite belong.
With its beautiful illustrations and engaging storyline, this graphic novel is a worthwhile read for fans of food, family and self-discovery.
