Yueyue sends DanDan off to America with stacks of red paper and a spool of string. Why? To make snowflakes with a new friend. It won’t be easy – DanDan doesn’t speak English. Read and find out if she finds that new American friend. Back matter includes information about the Lunar New Year and directions for those special red snowflakes.
