About the book
Sometimes life is not fair! In this second book in the Ly-Lan Finds A Way chapter book series about a daughter of Vietnamese immigrants, Ly-Lan navigates the school book fair—complete with anticipation and disappointment, surprising injustices (why did prices go up?), and finding a way to thrive.
Ly-Lan couldn‘t be more excited for the book fair to come to her school. She’s going to buy the latest book in her favorite series, The Adventures of Pizza Head, two cute posters, and some pencils with squishy tops. But when she realizes that not all kids have money to buy books at the Book Fair, she wonders if the Book Fair is actually fair. At Sunday School, Ly-Lan learns that God is always just and fair, and wonders how she can help make it fair for everyone at school. Ly-Lan wants to help but that’s turning out to be much more difficult than she imagined. But if there’s one thing she’s good at, it’s solving problems.

- Is the second in a series of illustrated chapter books about the irrepressible Ly-Lan
- Is written by Vietnamese American author Hà Dinh, creator of HappyDaysinFirstGrade.com and @hellomrsdinh on Instagram
