This graphic novel is a testament to great and diverse storytelling, not only in words but also in art. Whether you are a comics fan or simply like to indulge in good books, Secret Identities will awaken many new literary experiences in you. Historic. Surprising. Entertaining.
I absolutely adore this beautiful book; the writings are insightful and the drawings are expressive. I am grateful for these Asian American writers, artists, and comics professionals who have come together to create twenty-six wonderful stories. These stories will definitely inspire younger generations to explore their own culture and identity.
"Hello, Dear! I see you've put my gift to good use." said Nai-Nai in "You Are What You Eat." The editors of this book, and the writers and artists whose work is in it, certainly have given a wonderful gift to all of us. Put it to good use--read, dream about, and share Secret Identities.

I just wish I had these stories to read when I was growing up. But as an adult, I can still identify with the characters' struggles, successes, and dreams. As another reader mentioned, reading these stories makes me feel like I am more powerful than a locomotion :)

Words are really inadequate to describe the import of this work. Revolutionary, historic, groundbreaking? The feeling I had when it was delivered was like holding an advance copy of Takaki's work, "Strangers From a Different Shore". I was holding something that hadn't been seen before. After reading it, I was speechless, because for the first time in this genre, I saw myself reflected unapologetically in the stories and artwork contained in the pages of this book. I never thought I'd live to see the day where I had the opportunity to read about APA superheroes and eventually, share them with my children. An excellent job by everyone involved in this project, and a "must own" for the personal libraries of anyone interested in Asian-American studies, modern mythology and folklore/oral histories. After picking some copies up for your friends and family, ask your local library to carry it. Smart, witty, and visually stunning, I hope this title is only the vanguard and herald of more to come.
