Nate Yu's Blast From the Past 

 
My name is Nate Yu Riley, and sometimes I think I'm the worst Chinese person ever!
Nate knows he looks Chinese on the outside - but what is he on the inside? He can't speak Chinese, and he doesn't know anything about Chinese customs. So what if a First World War shell casing engraved with a Chinese dragon turns up in a history exhibition at school - why should he be interested in it?

'Captivating and charming, this book is a joy to read - I loved it!  Nazima Pathan, author of  Dreamhunters

'Nate Yu's Blast From the Past has all the trademarks of a Maisie Chan book -warmth, heart and humour! The world of ants and the relaities of the Chinese Labour Corp combine to form a riveting story which will tug at your heartstrings and keep you guessing right until the very end! Lui Sit, author of The Land of the Last Wildcat

Keep Dancing, Lizzie Chu 
Twelve-year-old Lizzie Chu lives in Glasgow with her grandad Wai Gong, and he's been acting a little strange lately. He is becoming forgetful, and spends a lot of time talking to his statue of Guan Yin - the Chinese goddess of compassion, kindness and mercy.

'So charming! ' Elle McNicoll, author of A Kind of Spark

'Keep Dancing, Lizzie Chu is a brilliant book!' Frank Cottrell Boyce, Waterstones Children's Laureate

'I didn't like it, I LOVED IT! The way you addressed the themes with such empathy, compassion and sensitivity...my classes are going to love this!' Kevin Cobane, Reading Teacher 

'Keep Dancing, Lizzie Chu looked like it was just about a girl who loved to dance but, in truth, it was also about a family, trust and friednships as well as mental health and young carers. I would recommend this book to 9-13 year-olds. This book is a 10 out of 10!'  Matilda, Highfields Primary

Danny Chung Does Not Do Maths

Eleven-year-old Danny Chung loves drawing more than anything - certainly more than maths. He also loves having his own room where he can draw in peace, so his life is turned upside down when a surprise that he's been promised turns out to be his little, wrinkly, ex-maths-champion grandmother from China. 

'Danny Chung Does Not Do Maths is both heart-warming and hilarious, filled with characters you'll instantly love''. Jamie Smart, author and illustrator of BUNNY VS MONKEY

'Danny Chung Does Not Do Maths  is joyful and funny and really charmed me. It's a story about discovering what makes you tick, and it's a celebration of creativity in all its forms, whether that is maths, art, comics or whatever else inspires.'  Dr Hannah Fry, mathematician, author and broadcaster

'I know for a a fact that my words cannot express how fabulous, joyous and funny this book is!' Erin Hamilton, My Shelves are Full Blog
