Who Moved my Rice?
Michael LaRocca

Who Moved my Rice cover by D. Lee
Cover art by D. Lee
ISBN 1-59201-031-8
60,300 words, 250 pages

Proof that an American redneck teaching English in China isn't exactly sane.

Watch me, fresh off the boat, stumble and bumble my way around Hangzhou for two years before I finally start getting the hang of living in China.

You can't eat grits with chopsticks

1500 subscribers can't be wrong! When Michael decided to put some of his Mad About Books newsletter ramblings about a redneck boy's life in China into a new book, we were delighted!


"Who Moved My Rice?"
is an Eppie 2005 Finalist!




Read a Sample Chapter of Who Moved my Rice?




In every turn of every road Michael La Rocca finds a new surprise and a new experience in China. Once you open Who Moved my Rice? you accompany LaRocca as he stops to admire the beauty of China and the gentleness of the Chinese people he encounters in this beautiful tapestry woven with syllables and sentences. I truly felt the pace and tempo of Hong Kong and Hangzhou. Michael, you have the magic to transport me and whoever opens you book from our doldrums to heights of uncharted imagination.
         --John Harrington Burns, author of Hidden Treasures and First Bite
