Synopses & Reviews
Jenny's favorite uncle, Peter, is getting married, and everyone is happy happy -- everyone, that is, except Jenny. While her family runs about getting ready for the traditional Chinese wedding -- preparing for the tea ceremony, exchanging good-luck money called hungbau, helping the bride with her many dresses -- Jenny is crying on the inside. How is she supposed to still be Uncle Peter's number-one girl, with her new aunt Stella around? Maybe if she can stop the day's events from happening, he won't get married at all... andlt;BRandgt; Mischievous kids will love following Lenore Look and Yumi Heo's feisty heroine from andlt;Iandgt;Henry's First-Moon Birthdayandlt;/Iandgt; in this charming story that also illuminates the many traditions of the Chinese wedding.
