This is without segue but...just want to tell you that today when I was working at the library, I gave Ling and Ting to a Chinese girl who is just learning English. We looked at the cover together and I asked her if she could tell how they were "not exactly the same". She looked and looked and then was triumphant, pointing from their hair to her own. Then she sat down and began to devour the book. Thanks for making my day, Grace!

Li Na's Lily: The Chinese proverb "Fortune comes to you when the lily blooms" leads a young girl to give her father a lily to care for, to his embarrassment in this upcoming picturebook.
