Brandon Goes to Hong Kong (香港)
Brandon is on a trip to Hong Kong where he meets up with his grandparents and is introduced to his cousin, Kelsey! While touring the city and feasting on local dishes, Brandon thinks he sees a great red dragon – but is it real or imagined? Does anyone else see the dragon? Will Brandon find out before he flies back home?
This multicultural, multi-generational chapter book includes some Mandarin Chinese (Simplified) with Pinyin pronunciation, adding layers for those learning or interested in the Chinese language and culture.
