Ping's Perfect Pot
Ping's Perfect Pot | Helen H. Wu
1 post | 1 read | 2 to read
KNEAD, MUSH, MASH. Ping molds a pot for Lunar New Year. When Ping and Grandpa bring a tangerine tree home for Lunar New Year, Ping decides to make the perfect pot to go with it. But making a pot is hard. With Grandpa's encouragement, she tries again and again to get it just right. The first is too clumsy, the second crumbles, and the third is too flimsy. What if she can't make the perfect pot? Will it ruin the new year? For anyone feeling discouraged over learning something new, Ping's Perfect Pot reminds them not to give up when something isn't immediately easy. Perfection takes practice, patience, and, in the end, the love and effort you put into it. Backmatter provides more context and the deeper meaning of Lunar New Year traditions and symbols found within the story, as well as around the world.

4 ⭐ It‘s Lunar New Year. Ping and her grandparent is getting ready to celebrate. They buy a tangerine tree and Ping spends the day trying to make the perfect pot to have a happy and joyful new year. This is a nice look at traditions that others may not see every day. I think the artwork is lovely. It goes well with the story and altogether this book was a joy to read.
