The magic fish / Trung Le Nguyen.

Nguyen, Trung Le, (author,, illustrator.).

Summary:

Real life isn't a fairytale. In fairy tales, the prince falls in love with the princess. But Tien has a different story to tell. His parents are refugees struggling to learn English, and he doesn't know how to come out to them in Vietnamese. If he doesn't even have the right words, how can he ever know if his parents will accept him? The answer is in fairy tales - a language that Tien and his parents share. Tien learns from his favorite stories as he navigates the world with the help of friends, family, and fairy tales.
