Publisher Description

In this sequel to Year of the Dog, Pacy has another big year in store for her. The Year of the Dog was a very lucky year: she met her best friend Melody and discovered her true talents. However, the Year of the Rat brings big changes: Pacy must deal with Melody moving to California, find the courage to forge on with her dream of becoming a writer and illustrator, and learn to face some of her own flaws. Pacy encounters prejudice, struggles with acceptance, and must find the beauty in change.

Based on the author's childhood adventures, Year of the Rat, features the hilarious and touching anecdotes that helped Year of the Dog earn rave reviews and satisfied readers.

“Kim Mai Guest narrates…in a sweet voice that one could mistake for that of an actual child. She flawlessly eases into Chinese and Taiwanese words, as well as contrasting the parents’ accents with the speech of their American-born children. Winner of the AudioFile Earphones Award.”
