Jama, Dumpling Soup is frequently on the top of the shelves - on display - at the Kona library! My son works there; maybe I'll nudge him to keep it prominent.

Hi Jama, Thanks for your lovely comment. You'd be welcome to sip tea in our part of the English countryside anytime, can't get Paul McCartney but my daughter does act like a 'Princess' a lot of the time so maybe she could be a good substitute for the Queen;)!! Love your writing ethos, what better way could there be for children to learn about acceptance and other cultures than through stories and humour:)!
