LitPick Review
The Year of the Rat signifies change. And Grace has plenty of changes in her life, including her best friend Melody moving across the country. Plus, she's beginning to question her dream of becoming a writer and illustrator. What if she should be something else? But what other talents does she have?
Opinion:
This book is a sequel to The Year of the Dog, but it can be read independently. One of my favorite things about both books is all the tidbits of Chinese Culture I learned about. It boasts a very believable voice of a young girl as its narrator. The writing is sparse, yet flowing. It's a sweet, comfortable little tale that I enjoyed a lot.
