A little girl holds lessons learned in her grandfather’s sari-sari store close while adjusting to a new home in this sweet picture book about the joy of community, connection, and Filipino culture.
“A gentle tale brimming with love and warmth”
“★ A lovely story fusing past and present, family lost and found, in memory and sensory experiences. An essential book for the shelves.”
“Almeda’s digital illustrations, bathed in golden light with dazzling contrasts, lend a warm feeling to Lee’s sensate descriptions in a book about what makes a heart ‘feel full.’”
