From the New York Times bestselling author of Front Desk comes a gripping middle grade novel about a young girl who leaves China to reunite with her parents and sister after five years apart, exploring themes of family, friendship, and the importance of being seen. Ten-year-old Lina Gao arrives in Los Angeles, excited yet nervous, having grown up with postcards from her parents while living with her grandmother in Beijing. Her long-awaited reunion is overshadowed by challenges: school is tougher than expected, and when she mispronounces words in English on her first day, she decides to stop talking altogether. Meanwhile, her younger sister effortlessly navigates English and seems to win their parents' affection more easily. Their new apartment doesn't match the house described in Mom's letters, and financial struggles from the pandemic complicate their lives further. As Lina grapples with hurt and insecurity at home and school, she finds solace in a book that resonates deeply with her. When her teacher faces backlash over the book, Lina must summon her courage to confront her fears and choose a path where she can finally be seen and understood.
