FOR ALL THE BUBBLE TEA IN CHINA

A few weeks ago, we went to Chinatown for the day.  Before we left the house, we read "The Story About Ping" by Marjorie Flack which takes place on the Yangtze River in China.  This story about a duck that gets lost from his crew, set the stage for an adventure filled day.  (Just a forewarning though-- the book is from an time long long ago where the word "spanking" is used without a second thought.  But the illustrations and story are so classic that I have to recommend it anyways.)  Just like Ping, we got lost in a new neighborhood and saw all sorts of strange birds- and other delicious treats and eats!  You can read all about our exploration at Brooklyn Based.
