Xiao Ming enjoys going to the beach, where his mother teaches him how to make Chinese Characters by drwaing pictures in the sand.
"Lee's mellow-hued collages feature a multicultural crowd of beach goers, while elaborate cut-outs grace the borders, echoing the fluid line of the Chinese characters. It's a remarkably unified effort: everything works together to create a flawless pciture book."
-Publishers Weekly, starred review
"The whimsical compositions have a strong sense of pattern, rhythm, and design." -Booklist
