    ”American born Chinese” By Gene Luen Yang is a graphic novel story which takes place in a mythical world/ Heaven and America. The characters Are Jin Wang, Monkey king, and Danny. This novel started When the monkey king went to a big party in Heaven and he was denied access because he was a monkey and did not wear shoes. The Monkey king took matters into his own hand and beat them all up. This made the monkey king change who he really was and he tried to bet the best and tried to fit in with all the other gods, this correlates with every other character in this novel. Jin was the only Chinese American boy in his class so he always felt like the odd one out so he wished he was and American boy so he wouldn’t feel so alone so later on in life it forced him the change how he looked.Danny is an all American boy and he has a cousin from China which all ways embarrasses him and ruins his reputation so he transfers schools every year so he doesn’t have to bare the embarrassment. Some topics in this story are self appreciation, friendship and loving yourself. I recommend this book to you because this is a short cool graphic novel and you can learn valuable lessons when you read this book I would rate this a 5/5 book got read it
