San Francisco Chronicle

“Cultures blend in this heartfelt story about Miri and her cross-town move. Two sets of grandparents — one of Chinese and one of Jewish heritage — prepare surprise gifts to help her feel at home. First: a small pair of red dragons to keep evil spirits away. (They are like the big statues flanking her old building). Second: a mezuzah to affix to the new doorpost as a reminder of her religion. San Francisco author Stephanie Wildman and Daly City author Adam R. Chang show how Mah Mah, Yeh Yeh, Bubbe and Zayde share traditions and a beloved granddaughter.” —San Francisco Chronicle
