Named “Our Choice” by the Canadian Children’s Book Centre, Spring 2007.
Jade is a curious nine-year-old who likes to help out at her family’s Chinese restaurant, The Fragrant Garden. Though she is often allowed to help set tables or clean up, she longs to be part of the more exciting tasks such as helping in the kitchen or using the cash register. Her father and the other restaurant staff think she is too young for these responsibilities and often interrupt any of her initiatives at helping out—until a fire breaks out in the kitchen.
Jade’s quick-thinking response, recalled from a lesson in fire safety that she learned at school, wins her praise. Her father reconsiders her request for more responsibility at the Fragrant Garden.
