When You Trap a Tiger by Tae Keller

5.0

I read this beautifully written book with my 11 year old daughter. We both enjoyed the tale of a young Korean girl grappling with the impending death of her beloved Halmoni (grandmother). It’s a magical realism coming of age story that seamlessly intertwines traditional fairy tales with modern family dynamics. My daughter gives it 5 stars (in a jar).
