What do you want to be when you grow up?
When Miss Price asks her class this big question, every student has an answer-except Wun. While his classmates dream boldly of becoming pilots, singers, and boxers, Wun isn't sure where he fits.
At home, Wun imagines many careers. He thinks about being a doctor, a police officer, a firefighter, and even an astronaut-but each dream brings a quiet truth about what doesn't feel right. Then one evening, while helping his mother cook dinner, inspiration rises like steam from a warm pot.
Wun Lee the Chef is a heartwarming children's story that encourages young readers to explore their interests, understand themselves, and learn that it's okay to take time finding their path. Inspired by real-life experiences working with youth, this book helps children think early about careers before investing their time and dreams-showing that the right answer often comes from listening to your heart.
Perfect for classrooms, libraries, and bedtime reading, this watercolor-illustrated story opens meaningful conversations about curiosity, self-discovery, and confidence.
