There are many beautiful things Emi can buy. Or is there a better answer?

Interview with the Author
So, what makes Emi Takes Hong Kong special?
Emi Takes Hong Kong is a picture book that doubles up as a kids’ travel guide since Emi visits all the top sights in Hong Kong on his quest! I had the idea to write a series of adventure stories based in different cities when I struggled to find any Asian children’s books or travel guides catering to young children. I’ve always found that stories are the best way to introduce new things (or cities) to kids!
Why should readers give this new book a try?
Emi’s story on creativity appeals to any reader as a satisfying one, whether it is their home town or not. As well as major sights of Hong Kong, the travel story book also introduces elements of local culture, such as dim sum and making a wish at Wong Tai Sin temple.
The kids’ story travel guide is designed to fit easily into those backpacks and little hands. I’ve also included maps and picture glossaries, as well as a quiz, to keep the little ones busy on the road. With a fun search-and-find element on each spread, this is a book your child will come back to again and again.
What Readers are Saying:

“A colourful and dynamic journey around some of the 852’s most iconic locations, Emi Takes Hong Kong is a delightful story with an educational twist that kids and parents alike will love.
