      About This Book

      Take a charming tour of Chinatown!

      What in the world
      could you possibly see
      at an old       gai see,
      just you and me
      on a warm and easy,
      slightly breezy
      springtime Saturday morning?

      In Cantonese, gai see means "street market," the lively place where vendors sell all their goods from open-air stalls, pushcarts, and stores. Join a curious little boy as he shops at the market with his family in every season and discovers many special treasures. From noodles in the spring to dragon fruit in the summer, from chocolate coins in the fall to firecrackers for Chinese New Year in the winter, you never know what you might find during a magical stroll through Chinatown.
