SummaryIt's Dongzhi, the winter solstice, the longest night of the year. Weiwei's family has moved to a new place, where instead of hummingbirds, palm trees, and chrysanthemum bushes, all she sees is a blanket of snow. This frozen place feels nothing like home. But Dongzhi is all about finding warmth through togetherness, even amid the cold and darkness. As Yeye reminds Weiwei, soon, spring will return. And until it does, celebrating together with family can make anywhere feel like home. This heartfelt picture book from Michelle Jing Chan introduces the customs and traditions of an important Chinese holiday in a story that bursts with color and light to warm even the darkest days of winter.
