Grace Lin grew up in Upstate NY with her parents and 2 sisters, who are featured in many of her books. Her Newbery Honor-winning novel Where the Mountain Meets the Moon, is an Asian inspired fantasy that some people call a Chinese Wizard of Oz. Learn more about the author at Grace Lin’s website.
Starry River of the Sky by Grace Lin
Starry River of the Sky, by Grace Lin, is a thoughtful, delightful tale, a quiet little story of awakening and forgiveness that would not only be a great on-its-own book for middle-grade and YA, but would also make a wonderful read-aloud thanks to the folktales at its core. And while it’s definitely aimed at that younger group, don’t assume that means a lack of maturity, for Lin displays a sophisticated sense of both style and structure here.
