Bookroo's summary

Twelve-year-old Anna Wang exchanges letters with her Chinese pen pal, Fan. When Anna invites Fan to visit Cincinnati, Fan's surprising response challenges Anna's understanding of family and friendship. As Anna navigates cultural differences, she learns the power of communication in overcoming conflicts. Will Anna's efforts to bridge the gap between continents strengthen their bond, or will it reveal deeper divides? Join Anna in this heartwarming tale of discovery and connection, where sisterhood transcends borders and cultures.
