The New York Times bestselling Front Desk series continues!

Mia Tang is at the top of her game!

She's spending winter break with Mom, Lupe, Jason, and Hank in San Francisco's Chinatown! Rich with history and hilarious aunties and uncles, it's the place to find a great story-one she hopes to publish while attending journalism camp at the Tribune. But this trip has as many bumps as the hills of San Francisco . . .

1. Mia's camp is full of older kids, with famous relatives, fancy laptops, and major connections! Can she compete with just her pen and passion?

2. Lupe's thinking about skipping ahead to college! Will Mia ever get a chance to just chill with her best friend?

3. Jason's crushing hard on a new girl. For the first time ever, Mia is speechless...and jealous. Can she find the courage to tell Jason-gulp-that she has a crush on him?

Even for the best writers, it's not always easy to find the right words. But if anyone can tell a top story, it's Mia Tang!

      Narrator Sunny Lu returns for the indomitable Mia Tang's fifth adventure. This time the 13-year-old goes to San Francisco for a winter-break journalism camp at a big-city newspaper. She, her mom, and her friends stay in Chinatown, embedding Mia and listeners in its rich history. Her racist editors have no interest in it, but, of course, Mia finds a way to make her voice heard. Once again, Lu confidently embodies Mia's can-do spirit even as she creates distinct secondary characters. Alas, she must also navigate frequent exposition on Asian American and Indigenous history, which is conveyed by Mia's new friends, a girl born in Chinatown and fellow campers who are Japanese American and Muwekma Ohlone. Listeners will soak up the information, but they may wish it had been delivered more naturally. V.S. © AudioFile 2023, Portland, Maine
