This sequel to Where the Mountain Meets the Moon shared many characters with the original, and it was enjoyable and surprising to make the various connections to stories, plot points and characters from the previous book. I read this with my 9yo daughter and she especially loved pointing out the different connections and discovering where the twists and turns of the plot were taking us. I enjoyed the weaving of the stories throughout, and the way that the author tied together seemingly disparate threads at the end.
i love this book.
just absolutely beautiful. i must say the stories are my favourite parts of the books grace lin writes.

What a beautiful story, of life, of love -not romantic, but true- of immortality and story. A folktale itself, this tale weaves together many other folktales, connecting them to each other. In those connections, the reader is reminded of the reasons that similar folktales appear in many different cultues; while people and cultures vary, the stories that touch on universal truths touch us all. Grace Lin not only crafted this beautiful tale, but also created gorgeous artwork to illuminate her words, both in woodcuts to begin each chapter and with periodic full-color plates.
