The kingdom of Cornucopia was once the happiest in the world.

Everything was perfect - except for the misty Marshlands to the north, which, according to legend, were home to the monstrous Ickabog. Anyone sensible knew that the Ickabog was just a myth to scare children into behaving. But the funny thing about myths is that sometimes they take on a life of their own.

Very interesting!
I enjoyed listening to Inspiring Asian Americans because I learnt about some prominent people I knew and many more notable Americans I didn't. We hear about the same 'heroes' repeatedly. I liked how the author introduced me to so many influential scientists, engineers, and educators. Honestly, we should study their leaders and heroes. Highly recommended for learning and fun.
