Nate Yu's Blast From The Past by Maisie Chan is a bighearted tale of family, forgotten stories and the search for belonging. Nate is unsure about many things, like moving to a big city, starting a new school, and his parents making him do Chinese stuff. They're always trying to get him to embrace his heritage, but Nate can't speak Chinese, and he doesn't know anything about Chinese customs. When he comes across an old shell casing engraved with a Chinese dragon, someone extraordinary appears. A ghost from long ago, who needs Nate's help - and Nate might just need his, too.
