Overview

A warmhearted and tender true story about a young girl finding beauty where she never thought to look, now in French.

Drawn from author Kao Kalia Yang's childhood experiences as a Hmong refugee, this moving picture book portrays a family with a great deal of love and little money. Weaving together Kalia's story with that of her beloved grandmother, the book moves from the jungles of Laos to the family's early years in the United States.

When Kalia becomes unhappy about having to do without and decides she wants braces to improve her smile, it is her grandmother—a woman who has just one tooth in her mouth—who helps her see that true beauty is found with those we love most. Stunning illustrations from Vietnamese illustrator Khoa Le bring this intergenerational tale to life.

"A deep and moving reflection on enduring hardship and generational love. . . . Poignant storytelling with stunning visuals."—starred, Kirkus Reviews

"A sincere narrative that centers on the power of family love."—starred, School Library Journal

Minnesota Book Award Finalist, ALA Notable Children's Book, New York Public Library Best Book for Kids, NPR Best Book of the Year

Une histoire chaleureuse et tendre au sujet d’une petite fille qui trouve de la beauté partout où elle regarde.

Tiré des expériences de son auteur Kao Kalia Yang, réfugiée Hmong dans son enfance, cet émouvant livre illustré dépeint une famille possédant des trésors d’amour et peu d'argent. Entremêlant l’histoire de Kalia avec celle de sa grand-mère, qu’elle aime, le livre va des jungles du Laos aux premières années que la famille a passées aux États Unis.

Lorsque Kalia devient malheureuse à cause du manque et décide qu’elle veut un appareil pour avoir un plus joli sourire, c’est sa grand-mère - qui n'a plus qu’une dent dans la bouche - qui l’aide à voir que la véritable beauté se trouve chez ceux que nous aimons le plus. Les splendides illustrations du dessinateur vietnamien Khoa Le donnent vie à ce conte intergénérationnel.

« Une réflexion profonde et touchante sur les épreuves qu’il faut endurer et l'amour familial. . . . Une histoire poignante avec des illustrations splendides. »—starred, Kirkus Reviews

« Un récit sincère centré sur la puissance de l’amour familial. »—starred, School Library Journal
