Keep Dancing, Lizzie Chu by Maisie Chan
Keep trying, keep laughing, keep dancing!'Danny Chung Does Not Do Maths is heart-warming and packed with fascinating snippets of Chinese culture. I loved reading about the intergenerational relationship between Danny and his grandmother. We all need a Nai Nai in our lives.' -- Jen Carney, author of The Accidental Diary of B.U.G.
Targeted at young readers, [this] uplifting intergenerational story takes them on a rollercoaster ride. Despite being a middle-grade novel, Keep Dancing, Lizzie Chu doesn't shy away from discussing weighty topics about death, loss, grief and illness. It sheds light on the role of young carers and their daily struggles. I believe in this story, it takes a community to support one in need of help and to show that the human spirit is more resilient than what we can imagine. * Books From the Pantry *
