About The Book

The first four books in the charming and brightly illustrated Amy Wu picture book series are now together in a collectible hardcover boxed set!

Funny, fierce, and fearless Amy Wu loves trying new things but sometimes gets caught up in wanting her efforts to turn out perfectly. Whether it’s making a delicious bao, crafting a dragon that expresses her culture, finding the words to welcome a new student, or learning to Chinese ribbon dance, Amy overcomes her doubts and enjoys the perfectly imperfect outcome of her endeavors with the help of her family and friends.

This sweet hardcover boxed set includes:
Amy Wu and the Perfect Bao
Amy Wu and the Patchwork Dragon
Amy Wu and the Warm Welcome
Amy Wu and the Ribbon Dance

About The Author

Photograph (c) 2020 by Mai Urai

Kat Zhang loves traveling to places both real and fictional—the former have better souvenirs, but the latter allow for dragons, so it’s a tough choice. A writer of books for teens and children, she spends her free time scribbling poetry, taking photographs, and climbing atop things she shouldn’t. You can learn more about her at KatZhang.com.

About The Illustrator

Why We Love It

“The Amy Wu series never fails to delight with every joyful installment. Charlene Chua’s art lifts your spirits, bringing Amy and her world to life, and Kat does such a wonderful job of capturing familiar childhood frustrations that all kids can find relatable.”

—Deeba Z., Editor, on Amy Wu Adventures Boxed Set
