Did you want to go to America? Pop: Sure. I didn't have a choice. My father said I had to go. So I went. Were you sad when you left your village? Pop: Maybe a little . . . well, maybe a lot. Ten-year-old Gim Lew Yep knows that he must leave his home in China and travel to America with the father who is a stranger to him. Gim Lew doesn't want to leave behind everything that he's ever known. But he is even more scared of disappointing his father. He uses his left hand, rather than the "correct" right hand; he stutters; and most of all, he worries about not passing the strict immigration test administered at Angel Island. The Dragon's Child is a touching portrait of a father and son and their unforgettable journey from China to the land of the Golden Mountain. It is based on actual conversations between two-time Newbery Honor author Laurence Yep and his father and on research on his family's immigration history by his niece, Dr. Kathleen S. Yep.

Anything can happen on Dragon Isle... Shapeshifters. Billionaires. Surprise weddings that will knock your socks off? You'll find all of this and more in the Return to Dragon Isle bundle. Book 1: Dragons Are Forever Anything can happen on Dragon Isle... One feisty dragon + one desperate human = one fake marriage. Jax needs a wife in a bad way. He stands to inherit an incredible fortune, but there's one caveat: he has to get married, like, yesterday. He can't touch the money until he's claimed a mate. He's got to stay married for an entire year, and then if they go their separate ways, it's no big deal. One year of marriage? He could do that. Only, all of the ladies on Dragon Isle are girls he grew up with. Nobody is going to take a chance on this. Nobody would buy it. Then one drunken stranger changes everything... Melissa has absolutely nothing going for her. When her husband caught her by surprise last year and filed for divorce, she was stuck with half of his debt and...nothing. She had nothing. They lost the house, the cars, and their savings accounts because apparently, Kyle had a secret gambling problem she knew nothing about. When a handsome stranger approaches her in a random bar with a strange offer, she's intrigued enough to say yes. One year being married to a rich guy? One year without sex or love or romance attached? One year as long as she doesn't ask too many questions? Melissa can't sign up fast enough. Soon she discovers that Dragon Isle isn't a normal island, though. It's full of secrets, and she finds herself determined to figure out what Jax is hiding from her. Book 2: Dragon Crushed Anything can happen on Dragon Isle... One feisty dragon + one pissed-off human = one relationship that won't be easy. Lana doesn't believe in happy endings. She doesn't believe in true love, and she doesn't believe in fated mates, and she doesn't believe in anything romantic. Oliver ruined all of that for her when he chose to break her heart. Oh, it might have been ten years ago, but she hasn't forgotten. Humans never do. Oliver has been busy building his company. As the CEO of a million-dollar company, he's got a lot on his mind. When he's feeling honest, he's more than willing to admit he threw himself into work after his relationship with Lana failed. He let her down, and he's never forgiven himself. When a freak storm forces the inhabitants of Dragon Isle to hunker down, Oliver finds himself trapped with the one person he never thought he'd see again.Lana is stuck at his house with no place to go, and Oliver realizes that when it comes to her, some things never change. This bundle also includes: Book 3: Dragon's Hex Book 4 - Dragon's Gain Book 5 - Dragon's Rush

Contemporary poetry is either the “Emperor’s New Clothes” or a stiff artifact made from tailored sounds and words. Like that famous, awfully candid child, I’m here to shout what the reader ought to see in this nifty and unique new book. The Moon and The Dragon brings to light the sureness of the Oriental soul! Serene and fiery at the same time, every word is bound together with silken ties of love and thoughts that add to a fuller, more rewarding appreciation of Ashanti’s “cherry blossoms”; “morning dance of Mother Earth’s prayers” and humanity’s struggle for peace and freedom. What an artistic, courageous triumph-whew! JULIE O’YANG Novelist & Visual Artist Amsterdam, Netherlands As I read, I find that Mr. Ashanti is a master poet and a prolific writer. Mr. Ashanti carefully has crafted the long standing struggles and repression on the mainland of China, as well as the trials and tribulations of Chinese-Americans. With extensive and accurate research on Chinese culture and mythology infused together he conjures a substantial and impressive collaboration of immense passionate writing. The Moon and The Dragon depicts a very expressive descriptive poetical outlet of hardships endured yet enriches a full immersion of Asian culture–specifically Chinese. TINA CHAN Poet--New York, NY

Isle of the Dragons Where once there was only one golden dragon, now there are twelve golden queen dragons. Only half are old enough to mate, but over five years they created a covey of nearly two hundred dragons. That was enough to have a dozen squadron leaders. The war at Thanos is over, thank all the Gods, but the war at Wylche is heating up. Dragons, taller than a horse, with sharp teeth and breathing fire, are used to scare the southern army men into running. But skirmishes happen; men are killed, injured, and laid up for a time. There is a prophecy come down from the Seven Gods that Zandrax will do something drastic to cause the Wylche Royal Castle to crumble, raise a mountain, and the Gods will use it to create a new Royal Castle atop the mountain for the new Dragon Lord. Prince Leander fears his father will die and that new Dragon Lord will be him. How will Zandrax pull down a castle the Seven Gods installed eons ago? Close to the end of the war King Philipi disappeared. Where? Royal Castle? Will Zandrax appear there? Can Philipi shoot him full of his tiny poison darts from his mini crossbow? Will he have the strength? And what will Zandrax do next? And will his flying horse (Grogan, the shape-changing demon) carry him? Deliver him safely? Or dump him? Will Zandrax be able to carry out his evil diabolical plot?

In this novel, a dangerous journey on stormy seas leads a man to an island where the past of the United States lives on. The America of the past was extraordinary. Today, unfortunately, it has descended into debauchery and chaos. The government has turned on its citizens and erected a political inquisition to replace legitimate rule of law based upon hard facts. Economic excellence for the masses is forbidden, contrary to the nation’s individualist past. A splendid, yet elusive, island lies in the southern seas where the America of the past still resides. For more than three-hundred years, individuals have longed for it, adventurers have died for it, and here we find those who have actually found it. Between the pages of this book, you will discover your place inside this wonderful land of glorious achievement . . .or will you?

Asian American voices and experiences are largely absent from elementary curricula. Asian Americans are an extraordinarily diverse group of people, yet are often viewed through stereotypical lenses: as Chinese or Japanese only, as recent immigrants who do not speak English, as exotic foreigners, or as a “model minority” who do well in school. This fundamental misperception of who Asian Americans are begins with young learners―often from what they learn, or do not learn, in school. This book sets out to amend the superficial treatment of Asian American histories in U.S. textbooks and curriculum by providing elementary teachers with a more nuanced, thematically driven account. In chapters focusing on the complexity of Asian American identity, major moments in Asian immigration, war and displacement, issues of citizenship, and Asian American activism, the authors include suggestions across content areas for guided class discussions, ideas for broader units, and recommendations for children’s literature as well as primary sources.
