At the Beach by Huy Voun Lee [in What Do I Read Next? Multicultural Literature]
At a beautiful day at the beach, Xiao Ming learns to write Chinese characters with his mother in the sand. To Xiao Ming, the characters are much like drawing simple pictures: a person walking to symbolize “man,” a person with both arms and legs outstretched to symbolize “big,” and so on. Adorable companion title to Huy Voun Lee’s In the Snow.
