The magic fish Cover Image Book Book

The magic fish [graphic novel] / Trung Le Nguyen.

Trung, Le Nguyen, (author.).

Summary:

Real life isn't a fairytale. But Tié̂n still enjoys reading his favorite stories with his parents from the books he borrows from the local library. It's hard enough trying to communicate with your parents as a kid, but for Tié̂n, he doesn't even have the right words because his parents are struggling with their English. Is there a Vietnamese word for what he's going through? Is there a way to tell them he's gay? This beautifully illustrated story follows a young boy as he tries to navigate life through fairytales, an instant classic that shows us how we are all connected, and that no matter what-we can all have our own happy endings.
