First-chapter Friday : Starry River of the Sky

Each Friday I share the link to a read-aloud preview of a book from our school library, with the SRCSA community. The “First-chapter Friday” selection for Feb. 11, 2022, is Starry River of the Sky, by Grace Lin.

The moon is missing from the remote Village of Clear Sky, but only a young boy named Rendi seems to notice! Book author Grace Lin is the winner in 2022 of the Children’s Literature Legacy Award. Presented by the American Library Association, this award honors an author or illustrator, published in the United States, whose books have made a significant and lasting contribution to literature for children.
