The above books are out of print. Occasionally they show up in a used book store. One of the Internet booksellers, such as Amazon.com or alibris.com, can do a search for you.

VIETNAM: REBUILDING A NATION (Dillon Press, 1990). Non-fiction. Grades 5 and up.

WHY DUCKS SLEEP ON ONE LEG (Scholastic, 1993). A charming Vietnamese folk tale illustrated by the renowned Tsengs. May be listed with Scholastic's book clubs, in a cheap paperback version.

I NEVER KNEW YOUR NAME (Houghton-Mifflin, 1994). Very poignant picture book for teens. Won two awards; great reviews. Subject is teen suicide. The publisher goofed and sold 4,000 copies to a remainders company without informing me, so I was unable to purchase any. No one knows what happened to the copies after that because records were lost (so they say!!). Four thousand copies are out there somewhere. If anyone finds them, please let me know.
