Where the Mountain Meets the Moon transports readers to a rich, mythical land inspired by Chinese folklore, where a brave young girl named Minli sets off on an unforgettable quest.
Determined to change her family's fortune, Minli journeys across mountains and through magical lands, meeting talking animals, dragons, and storytellers along the way. Grace Lin’s lyrical storytelling weaves together tales, wisdom, and our fourth grade theme, "Warmest Welcome."
As Minli follows the thread of her destiny, students will reflect on the power of thankfulness, the meaning of home, and the beauty of radical hospitality.
