Eleven-year-old Nhia “Silver” Lee is visiting her Hmong grandparents, but she doesn’t speak their language, at least not very well. Enter: Anxiety. Nhia fears she won’t be able to connect with her grandparents due to this language barrier. Fortunately, while helping her grandpa on the farm and cooking with her grandmother, Nhia discovers that words aren’t the only way to show love. Written by Sheelue Yang, this graphic novel is a darkly humorous, normalizing exploration of coming-of-age anxiety through the lens of an authentic pre-teen girl.
Karen Donnelly is a British illustrator with many years’ experience in fiction and non fiction. She grew up loving to draw pictures for the books she was reading and still can’t believe that she gets to do it for real! She works in a very, very untidy basement studio, in the company of her grumpy Scottie dog.
