Good series
"Our daughter enjoys this series by Kelly Yang. We bought this for her birthday."
— BookMama (5/5)
Great book for preteens
"Author has an amazing way expressing diversity to her reading audience. This book is great for preteens not yet ready for teen chapter novels. Her language is simple to understand yet expressive enough to use your imagination and truly be apart of the story. I recommend for ages 10-12."
— Melissa (4/5)

Kelly Yang is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of several books for young readers, including Three Keys, Room to Dream, Key Player, and the 2019 Asian/Pacific American Award for Literature winner Front Desk, which was also chosen as a Best Book of the Year by multiple publications, including NPR, The Washington Post, and the New York Public Library. Kelly's family immigrated to the United States from China when she was a young girl, and she grew up in California, in circumstances very similar to those of Mia Tang. After attending college at the age of 13, she graduated UC Berkeley and Harvard Law School. She is the founder of The Kelly Yang Project, a leading writing and debating program for children in Asia and the United States. Her writing has been published in South China Morning Post, The New York Times, The Washington Post, and The Atlantic. To learn more about Kelly and the Front Desk series, visit frontdeskthebook.com.
