Gigi wants to go by something besides her baby namebut her full name, Geraldine, is too long to write and Hanako, her middle name, doesnt feel quite right. Will Gigi find the perfect name? This exciting new I Can Read series is brought to you by author-illustrator Melissa Iwai, whose popular books include Soup Day and Dumplings for Lili. Gigi and Ojiji: Whats in a Name? is a Level Three I Can Read book. Level 3 includes many fun subjects kids love to read about on their own. Themes include friendship, adventure, historical fiction, and science. Level 3 books are written for early independent readers. They include some challenging words and more complex themes and stories. The story contains several Japanese words and a glossary of definitions. Praise for Gigi and Ojiji: "Gigi crafts her Japanese American identity in this enchanting early reader. The cuteness, inclusivity, and cross-cultural problem-solving represented will have young readers coming back again and again. A must-buy." School Library Journal (starred review) "The text is well supported by the endearing illustrations, which capture all of Gigis big emotions and depict her as a biracial child, with a white father and Japanese mother." ALA Booklist (starred review) "An affirming option in the quickly diversifying field of early-reader books."
