When the Sea Turned to Silver by Grace Lin

3.0

Pinmei's grandmother is a famous storyteller. After she is kidnapped, Pinmei and her friend, Yishan, go on a rescue mission. Along the way, the two children meet vibrant people, who feels almost like characters in Pinmei and her grandmother's stories. The fables expose readers to the vibe of Chinese mythology.

While it was a rough and boring start, this book became fascinating by the end. I looked forward to the fables, as opposed to the storyline.
