Description
"Kai And The Magic Jacket" features a boy named Kai who is given an ornate silk Chinese jacket. Passed down through many family generations, this isn't just any ordinary jacket. Once Kai puts it on, three ancestors from another time appear. In this coming of age story, the ancestors offer guidance and a little humor as young Kai confronts choices and peer pressure.
Advance Praise
"Kai and the Magic Jacket" comes with a strong
message of hope, and is a choice pick for children's picturebook collections
seeking something with an Asian flavor."

"A sweet familial story,
beautifully illustrated, that delivers a terrific lesson for your readers."
- Jamie Ford, New York Times bestselling
author of Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet.
"Kai and the Magic Jacket
depicts the importance and value of family, and that it takes a strong
individual to stand up and say "no" to bad influences. If only every
child had a magic jacket to help them."
- Penney Gonzalez, Director of Rocky Mountain

"...the narrative itself
feels fresh, and the illustrations are bright and cheerful. Readers may find
that the pacing feels rushed in places—several months pass during the course of
the narrative, which seems odd for a picture book—but the effect doesn’t
overpower the story. Although some of the characters could have been a bit more
fully developed, they’re still all distinct enough to carry the story to its
conclusion."
-Kirkus Review
"A must read children's book. To all you parents out there looking for a great example to show & teach your children about having a relationship with spirit, ancestors, guardian angels and guides. Kai And The Magic Jacket depicts an exemplary example of how to demonstrate to your children how they can listen, feel and call upon spirit at any given time."
