A fast-paced, high-kicking debut
that’s Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon meets Stand Up,
Yumi Chung as a young taekwondo artist uses an ancient book to help
save her dreams—and her father.
Twelve-year-old Modesty “Mo” Seto dreams of being a taekwondo champion. Even
though her mom disapproves, Mo can always count on her dad, who is her number
one fan and biggest supporter. Lately, Mo has been on a losing streak, and it
doesn’t help that she keeps losing to her archnemesis, Dax, who’s much bigger
than her. If only she were faster, stronger, not so petite. Mo can’t even lean
on her dad like usual with how distracted he’s been lately.
When Mo learns about the chance to audition to star alongside her idol and
legendary martial artist and movie star Cody Kwok, she knows this her chance to
prove to her dad, to the world, and to herself that she can compete with
anyone, no matter her size. Unfortunately, Dax is auditioning, too. As Mo and
her nemesis progress to callbacks, someone attempts to sabotage the movie set
and Mo’s dad disappears—and both events seem linked to a mysterious book,
the Book of Joy.
The book contains information on Xiaoxi Fu, a secret dance-like martial art
developed by Mo’s ancestral grandmother. Armed with these secret moves and an
unexpected ally, Mo embarks on a high-octane adventure to rescue her father,
save the movie, and discover an unexpected joy in being small.
Reviews:
"Action-packed
prose mimics the cinematic high-intensity atmosphere of a classic martial arts
film, while Mo’s desire to connect with her father acts as a driving force in
this adrenaline pumping series opener." ― Publishers Weekly
"Chan has created a brave, athletic girl whose realistic struggles with
her identity and what she’s capable of will resonate. Readers will find
themselves rooting for Mo’s success and enthralled with the relatable
characterization that fills the pages. An exciting mystery-adventure story that
packs a punch." ― Kirkus Reviews
