"Another fine book in the genre of "it's-for-kids-and-adults-too." Frank Chin's choppy sentences and leaps between oddball humdrum and historical fantasy capture an adolescent's estranged experience with cultural identity in America. This one has me laughing out loud-often. A good book for a crowded subway car."
