Chopsticks from America by Elaine Hosozawa-Nagano, illustrated by Masayuki Miyata [in What Do I Read Next? Multicultural Literature]
Tiffany and Kevin, two Japanese American children, move to Japan because of their father’s job. While they might look like “chopsticks among other chopsticks,” they are American, which proves to be very different from being Japanese. Little by little, the two children adapt, and even enjoy, their new environment.
