Brandon Goes to Beijing

Brandon Goes To Beijing by Eugenia Chu

I received Brandon Goes To Beijing by Eugenia Chu for Multicultural Children’s Book day 2022.

My 8 year old son and I really enjoyed the story! My son’s favorite part was when they made and ate dumplings. It definitely made us want to at least eat, if not make, dumplings of our own 🙂 You can visit the author’s website (http://eugeniachu.com) for Pó Po’s jiǎo zi recipe. 

I also really liked how you can listen to an audio recording of the book, read by the author, on her website, which is super helpful if you have any difficulty pronouncing the Mandarin Chinese words. 

I highly recommend this book. We learned a lot and it was a fun way to learn. We love diversifying our reading collection. 

Many thanks to Multicultural Children’s Book Day , Eugenia Chu, and all of the sponsors and authors that made this possible. 

#ReadYourWorld 

Multicultural Children’s Book Day 2022 (1/28/22) is in its 9th year! This non-profit children’s literacy initiative was founded by Valarie Budayr and Mia Wenjen; two diverse book-loving moms who saw a need to shine the spotlight on all of the multicultural books and authors on the market while also working to get those books into the hands of young readers and educators.

MCBD’s mission is to raise awareness of the ongoing need to include kids’ books that celebrate diversity in homes and school bookshelves. Read about our Mission & History HERE.
