Beschreibung

A 2019 Batchelder Honor Book

Yu'er and her grandpa live in a small neighborhood in Beijing--and it's full of big personalities. There's a story around every corner, and each day has a hint of magic.

In one tale, Yu'er wants to swim in the Special Olympics, a sports competition for people with disabilities. But she and her grandpa don't have a pool! Their trick to help Yu'er practice wows the whole neighborhood. In another story, a friend takes Yu'er to a wild place full of musical insects. Later, Yu'er hears a special story about her grandparents. And in the final story, Yu'er and her grandpa show a cranky painter the sweet side of life.

“[My stories] ease the soul’s little boo-boos.” Is what the Grandpa says in one of the four little illustrated stories in this. And satisfying a reader’s meta needs, so did this book. We meet Yu’er and her Grandpa adventuring in their neighbourhood of Beijing. It is adorable and uplifting to read about, the fantastical spins to the stories are wonderful! With Yu’er there is a child with a crutch as our main character, which is lovely, especially because the book shows how easily the people around her accept and accommodate her disability. The Aquarell art is beautiful to look at, too! Would gladly read this with kids!
