I am having problems with my term paper, namely because part of it is analyzing Monkey's role in American Born Chinese and it's really, really hard for me to separate any part of that book from the rest, because everything plays in to everything else. And my teacher probably has not read it, so I'm trying to give a sense of things without summarizing the whole damn book.
Basically I LOVE THIS BOOK FOR EVER AND EVER, and fjdksjfd;ad the transformers, oh my god, and Wei-Chen says right out in the beginning that his toy-robot-that-can-change-into-a-robot-monkey was given to him by his father, and I love the trick of having 'ha ha ha ha' or 'clap clap clap' along the bottom of every Chin-Kee-related panel, and that even though the book's written and sfx-ed in English, all Monkey's writing and calling-your-attacks are in Chinese.
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE. It's way super hard to write about because of all the reasons I love it, but no way am I ever going to stop.
