When Grandpa practices tai chi in the garden, Vinson asks to learn, hoping it will be like kung fu, full of kicks and punches. But tai chi is slow and still, and Vinson quickly gets bored. He can’t understand why Grandpa insists on calling him by his Chinese name, Ming Da, or why he has to wear a traditional Chinese jacket to the Chinese New Year parade. But as the parade assembles, Vinson sees the respect his grandfather commands and starts to realize just how cool his grandfather might be.  u00002f/00002ff2.jpg  aBR-BrIDEAcBR-BrIDEA10aCrouching tigercYing Chang Compestine  aSomerville, Mass.bCandlewickc2019  a1 v.(unpaged)bcol. ill.  aNascimbene, Yaneillustrator
