    What to Expect: China and Travel

    Emma and Joe are curious about everything on their trip to China. My China Travel Journal tells the story of the fascinating, and sometimes quirky, people and places they encounter. Join them while they fly kites with Chinese friends, spot strange new vegetables in the market, and eat candied crab apples from a street vendor. This book answers questions about China, inspires children with hands-on activities, and sparks their curiosity about the world.

      I would love to win this book for my daughter! She was adopted from China when she was a baby so this book would be very meaningful to her now, and in the years to come. Thanks for the chance!
