SUMMARY:Little New-Yorkers: Paper Son: The Inspiring Story of Tyrus Wong, Immigrant and Artist
DESCRIPTION:It’s Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage Month, and we’ll be celebrating all month long by reading about AAPI people and traditions, and by reading stories written by AAPI authors today! “Before he became an artist named Tyrus Wong, he was a boy named Wong Geng Yeo, who traveled with his father across a vast ocean to America.” That’s the beginning of author Julie Leung and illustrator Chris Sasaki’s Paper Son, a book that tells the story of a boy immigrating to California from China, and working all his life to be an artist. After the story, we’ll create our own animal kite crafts, inspired by Tyrus’ love of kite-making!
Ages: 3–6 years
