This is a cute little story. I enjoyed how it made affirmations for the little boy that allowed him to have good feelings about himself. I think this would be very nice for a lot of kids who feel differently about themselves and their heritage. I hope that anyone, not just an Asian kid would be able to be inspired by this story. I recommend it to anyone who has ever had the feeling that they are different and that they don’t fit in.

This book is a beautiful embrace of culture, identity, confidence and empowerment. It is aimed to asian boys but could be a great discussion point for any adult and child. The focus is on positive mindset and emotional wellbeing. There are some great resources at the back of the book that the author included.

This is such a sweet and brilliant book that is design to reaffirm a child’s belief in themselves. Although the book focuses on a young Asian boy, the affirmations can easily be applicable to all children. In today’s world, children rarely seem to get to hear how well they are doing, and how great they are. This book is perfect for reinforcing that concept and is a great book to read together as a family.
I read this with both of my children and they each seemed to take away different things from it. This is a fantastic book that I would urge everyone to read.

I Am A Bold Asian Boy (Asian Family Series) by Yobe Qiu. This is such a sweet story about a Asian boy who is struggling with who he is. It has positive affirmations that little boys can resonate with. The little boys lists all the things he is good at and what he can do. Its geared toward Asian boys but can be reworded in a small way to include all kids. It talks about all the positive ways cultural difference can be great. This book is a great way for kids to get a head start on knowing their worth and not going down the rabbit hole of self doubt and no confidence! The pictures are really awesome too. This book would make a great gift for the young child in your life!

This is the first time I’m picking up a story by this author, Yobe Qiu. What first drew attention was the artwork 🥰 it was cute and colorful, really eye catching! The message was amazing to read, to love yourself and be proud of who you are and what your culture is. Which I think is real important for everyone to know.I also love how in the background on the book stand the author put her other books on there 🤣🥰really creative.

This book made me smile ear to ear. I may not be Asian or a boy, but the positivity in this book just made my heart soar!

I wish there were affirmation books like this when I was younger. This book is diverse and showcases the numerous characteristics that one can be.

I really enjoyed the illustrations as well.

‘I am bold, big hearted, brave, brillant, balanced, blessed, beautiful, bilingual, and bountiful. I’m all of these and more.’

What a way to bring the whole book full circle!

Beautifully illustrated and wonderful book. This book shows the B’s of being yourself. Being comfortable in your skin and embracing all that your culture has to give. Bold. Big-hearted. Brave. Brilliant. Balanced. Blessed. Beautiful. Bilingual. Bountiful. Words to live by when embracing your race, religion, language, culture and so much more. I also loved how the book showed representation of multiple races and cultures in the classroom and his friends.

I’m a fairly new Headstart Assistant Teacher and we have been studying different cultures in children. I was thrilled to find this book and read it. The story helps teach affirmations, shows positivity, and teaches children that their culture does matter. I plan to read this story soon enough to the kiddos in our class. I’ve recently learned there is also a female version too.

This was a really nice read and full of such positivity. The story is aimed at Asian boys as the title suggests but I think if read in a setting all of the children who might listen to this could benefit from some of the positive messages that come across in the book. The story is beautifully illustrated and would definitely capture the interest of young children.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was an uplifting book that promoted positive affirmation in Asian boys (although the affirmation can be used for any culture). Throughout the book, an Asian boy talks about all the great things he is and can do. He talks about being bold, brave, big-hearted, etc. that would help any child bring joy and words of kindness to themselves. I loved how the book didn’t provide this boy with a problem at the beginning to overcome, the book goes straight into a self-love mentality which I am here for. If you have a son or boy who is feeling down on themselves, this could be a great read for encouragement, especially for Asian boys. The illustrations are cute too.

What a beautifully written and illustrated children’s book. This book shows young boys of Asian decent how they can be strong, courageous and proud of their cultural identity. Affirming where one comes from and the power that we hold within ourselves is important. If I was a teacher, I would have copies of books such as this on my shelf for my students to read.

I Am A Bold Asian Boy: A Positive Affirmations Book For Asian Boys by Yobe Qiu is a cute and inspiring book that teaches children the benefits of daily affirmations. And although this is aimed at Asian boys- I think the affirmations are applicable to all children, with a little re-wording.
The affirmations are accompanied by some seriously cute, charming, interesting, and colourful illustrations that easily captures the reader’s attention, whilst also engaging the imagination, and thus helping to reinforce the affirmations..
Affirmations are a great way to build confidence, mindfulness, and possibility. This is full of many wonderful affirmations that will help nurture happier children.

“I’m a brilliant Asian boy
I’m curious and love to learn
I know it’s ok to be wrong
I can always take multiple turns.”

“I’m a balanced Asian boy
I’m excited for what my day brings
From school to play to family
I can juggle many things.”

This is an imaginative, fun, engaging, and enjoyable children’s picture book that helps develop confidence.
Happy Reading!
