Praise for Gigi and Ojiji: "Gigi crafts her Japanese American identity in this -enchanting early reader. The cuteness, inclusivity, and cross-cultural problem-solving represented will have young -readers coming back again and again. A must-buy." --School Library Journal (starred review) "The text is well supported by the endearing illustrations, which capture all of Gigi's big emotions and depict her as a biracial child, with a white father and Japanese mother." --ALA Booklist (_s_tarred review) "An affirming option in the quickly diversifying field of early-reader books." --Kirkus Reviews A 2023 Theodor Seuss Geisel Honor title El día de los niños, el día de los libros selection 2023 ALSC Notable 2023 CBC Teacher and Librarian Favorites Award 2023 A Bank Street Best Children's Book of the Year in the 5-9 beginning reader category (2023) A Chicago Public Library Best of the Best A CCBC 2024 Choices for the Books for Beginning Readers category!
