Good Luck Gold, approaching its 20th anniversary, was the first collection of children's poetry to include Asian American themes. Janet Wong's sometimes poignant, sometimes humorous, and always original poems explore her Chinese and Korean heritage among poems about "just growing up" in contemporary America. This electronic edition of Wong's original 42 poems includes the often-reprinted "Waiting at the Railroad Cafe," "Noise," and "Noodles," plus a new Author's Note at the end. Janet Wong received the Recognition of Merit Award from the Claremont Graduate School for this first collection of hers as well as her second collection, A Suitcase of Seaweed. Good Luck Gold is considered a classic in multicultural literature.
