This stunning fantasy inspired by Chinese folklore is a companion novel to Starry River of the Sky and the New York Times bestselling and National Book Award finalist When the Sea Turned to Silver

In the valley of Fruitless mountain, a young girl named Minli lives in a ramshackle hut with her parents. In the evenings, her father regales her with old folktales of the Jade Dragon and the Old Man on the Moon, who knows the answers to all of life's questions. Inspired by these stories, Minli sets off on an extraordinary journey to find the Old Man on the Moon to ask him how she can change her family's fortune. She encounters an assorted cast of characters and magical creatures along the way, including a dragon who accompanies her on her quest for the ultimate answer.

Grace Lin, author of the beloved Year of the Dog and Year of the Rat returns with a wondrous story of adventure, faith, and friendship. A fantasy crossed with Chinese folklore, Where the Mountain Meets the Moon is a timeless story reminiscent of The Wizard of Oz and Kelly Barnhill's The Girl Who Drank the Moon. Her beautiful illustrations, printed in full-color, accompany the text throughout. Once again, she has created a charming, engaging book for young readers.

Amazing fit, great quality material
Size: 30W x 32L, Color: Medium Grey, Size: 30W x 32L, Color: Medium Grey
I ordered this pair of denim pants in my usual size (30x32) and they fit amazingly. The cut is slim, but not overly tight. The material is the perfect thickness and seems to be of excellent quality, with a slight stretchiness to it. They are slightly softer than most denim pants I have worn. I am finding that they are great for both business casual settings with a button-up shirt and more informal "dress down" type situations with a t-shirt and sneakers. This is probably my favorite pair of jeans that I have gotten in at least a few years, and I would highly recommend overall.

Soft, comfortable fitting jeans
Size: 30W x 30L, Color: Black Rinse
Good quality and a great slim fit, but a bit expensive for a blend. Since they aren’t 100% cotton, they have a slight stretch that makes them more comfortable and softer than standard jeans. I’m happy with the look and feel, but I’ll have to see how they hold up over time.

Very nice and would highly recommend!
Size: 32W x 30L, Color: Medium Grey
The fit is exactly what I was looking for, slim without being too tight, and it fits true to size, so I get that modern look but still feel comfortable sitting or walking around all day. The denim feels soft yet sturdy, which makes me confident it’ll hold up well over time. I also love the classic 5-pocket design. It’s functional and keeps my essentials handy without adding bulk. The color holds up after a few washes, and there’s minimal fading so far, which is a big plus for me. Pairing these pants with a casual tee or a button-down is effortless, they easily transition from work to weekend vibes. For the price and quality, I feel like these are a solid addition to my wardrobe. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for a slim, comfortable, and versatile pair of jeans.
