This book was beautifully written. Starting off with three year of the Ram (2015)and ending with the year of the Tiger (2022). Each section of the book coincides with one of the animals of the Chinese zodiac. We get to learn about the Chan family especially Alexandra’s father Robert Earl Chan. Who was a magnificent person. I laughed and cried with the stories about how he overcame obstacles at a time when segregation was still very prevalent. I laughed and even cried and the artwork made it even more special. Every single image included in the book tells of a specific moment in the Chan family life. You can’t help but feel the emotions that each image brings as you read the story. I felt as if was watching the scenes unfold right in front of me while I was reading.
I’ll have to buy a final copy when it’s released! Thanks to Bookish First for the ARC copy.
