Cover of Home in a Lunchbox
May 7, 2026 Becca B says:
An absolutely gorgeous picture book for AANHPI month, celebrating how immigration and cultural differences bring us comfort and enrich our lives.
Moving from Hong Kong to America, Jun, who only knows a few words of English, finds her new school foreign and frightening, but when she opens her lunchbox to find her favorite meals, she realizes home isn't so far away after all.

Becca B

I work in adult services. I read a diverse array, including memoirs, graphic novels, horror, middle grade and more! I have a fear of being asked to lead storytimes and a fondness for television—good or bad. I love organization projects, baking, nail polish and ranting to my friends.
