Measuring Up by Lily Lamotte

5.0

Twelve year old Cici immigrates from Taiwan to Seattle & is trying to fit in at school & with new friends. She misses her grandmother terribly, so she enters a cooking contest hoping to win the prize money so she can buy a ticket for her grandmother for a surprise visit for her dad's birthday.

Such a cute & heartwarming book about food & family with great illustrations that make your mouth water, so don't read on an empty stomach!
