yardsard 's review for:
When the Sea Turned to Silver
by Grace Lin
This is a 2016 National Book Award Finalist and highly deserved. It beautifully weaves Chinese folklore into the magical/mythological adventure of two children. I'm not sure if anyone else got "Frozen" vibes from it, but I might make a point to use the similarities in reader's advisory. The children are trying to end an eternal winter, learn to use the power of voice, and overcome their obstacles through generosity and putting others first. Would recommend for adults and children.
