{"product_id":"9781419769214","title":"Bao's Doll : A Picture Book by Bo Lu","description":"Bo Lu's picture book Bao's Doll is a moving story of empathy, forgiveness, and connection about an immigrant mother and her daughter who discover they have more in common than they ever knew.    Whenever Mama says, \"when I was a little girl in Taiwan, we had nothing,\" Bao stops listening. Mama does not understand Bao, and Bao certainly does not understand Mama.    So when Bao desperately wants a doll-specifically, the beautiful, blonde All-American Artist Amanda doll that everyone else has-Bao takes matters into her own hands and steals Amanda from the store. After getting caught, Bao's chest feels heavy like a giant rock. But gradually, the awkward silence between Bao and Mama shifts to honesty, and eventually, a deeper understanding of what binds them.    Inspired by the childhood of debut talent Bo Lu, this poignant picture book brings emotional layers to the story of a parent and child learning to connect with their heritage and each other.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44581462081714,"sku":"9781419769214","price":13.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781419769214.jpg?v=1720881759","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781419769214","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
