Description
A beautifully illustrated tale of immigration and imagination, about the struggle to fit into a new place, make new friends, and see yourself in new stories--from Bo Lu, Ezra Jack Keats Illustrator Honor-winning author-illustrator of Bao's Doll

When her family moves to a new country, Ren is heartbroken to leave Popo and her magical stories behind. In her new home, nothing feels familiar--until Ren discovers that, with her pencil, she can bring to life what she can't find the words to say. Through drawing, she bridges the gap between her two worlds and transforms her loneliness into a meaningful connection.

Inspired by the childhood experiences of award-winning author-illustrator Bo Lu, this heartfelt picture book is a celebration of resilience, friendship, and finding a sense of belonging through art and storytelling.
