Changs Paper Pony

‘Chang and Grandpa Li live in a California Gold Rush town during the 1850s. Chang longs for a pony, for he has only a drawing of one. He tries panning for gold, and later, earning money by sweeping a cabin, he finds gold and is rewarded with the coveted pony. Warm, freely drawn illustrations support Coerr's authentic picture of some of the earliest Chinese immigrants to the U.S." 'K. <p> Children's Books of 1988 (Library of Congress)<br>1988 John and Patricia Beatty Award (California Library Association)
