(3) K-3 After a trip to a Chinese restaurant, the narrator of this amusing story becomes convinced her family's fortune cookie fortunes are coming true. For example, her sister Mei-Mei's fortune is "Your smallest action will attract many"; when Mei-Mei fills the bird feeder, a flock of birds arrives. Exaggerations in the colorful illustrations give the story a tall-tale flavor.
