102 in stock, ready to ship
A young Chinese American girl uses creative STEAM-powered problem-solving to master chopsticks so she can pick up her dumplings and eat them, too, in this charming and laugh-out-loud picture book perfect for fans of the Amy Wu series. Jenny Chow struggles with chopsticks--aiya, those slippery, oh-so-tricky chopsticks! But cousin Victor's birthday party is just around the corner, along with her family's annual chopsticks challenge. Jenny doesn't want to be the only Chow who never learns how to use the utensils. She'll do whatever it takes to prove she can hold her own in her family's long-held tradition--no matter how many experiments she wobbles and fumbles through.

About the Author
Sylvia Chen remembers transferring slippery wet marbles from rice bowl to rice bowl to quicken her chopsticks skills at her childhood home in Queens, New York. She much prefers picking up dim sum and other yummy food with chopsticks--even fried chicken! She loves figuring out tricky challenges with a bit of STEAM-based trial and error, which includes making DIY costumes for her kids, often with duct tape, dollar-store finds, and LED lights.
