Ly-Lan and the New Class Mix-up
The first in a series for young readers ages 6-10, Ly-Lan and the New Class Mix-up follows Ly-Lan, the eight-year-old daughter of Vietnamese immigrants, as she navigates a new school year, friendships old and new, and learning how to trust God and his plans.
Sometimes things don’t turn out the way we plan! In this chapter book series about a daughter of Vietnamese immigrants, Ly-Lan navigates her life as a new third grader—complete with old and new friends, unexpected (and disappointing) changes at home and school, and finding a way to thrive.
Third grade is not starting the way Ly-Lan pictured. First, her best friend Cece is put in another class--even after Ly-Lan prayed they would be in the same one. And then Ly-Lan is tasked with showing the new Vietnamese student around. Ly-Lan wants to hang out with Cece, not play translator to the new girl, and she doesn’t understand why her prayers aren’t being answered. If Ly-Lan is going to flourish in third grade, she must learn to trust in God’s plans, especially when it means making some adjustments to her own.
Ly-Lan and the New Class Mix-up:
- Is the first in a series of illustrated early chapter books about Ly-Lan, a third grader tackling familiar themes like friendship, overcoming obstacles, and navigating changes in life with grace
- Perfect for kids ages 6 and up or reluctant or emerging readers just starting to read chapter books on their own.
- Is an encouraging read for reluctant readers with its illustrated chapters.
- Is written by Vietnamese American author Ha Dinh, creator of HappyDaysinFirstGrade.com and @hellomrsdinh on Instagram
