I thought the book Tofu Quilt was interesting because I got to learn about Chinese culture. The part that i liked the best was when Yeung Ying tried her first bowl of Dan-Lai. I would recommend this book to anyone that likes to learn about China.

Tofu Quilt is a great book. The book doesn't really have a main idea. It is just about a girl and her relatives.
