It's a joyous occasion when you get to visit family in another country after a long time apart. But sometimes it takes a while to connect. That's what happens to the little girl in this book--when she first sees her faraway family, they feel like strangers. To make matters worse, the power goes out at bedtime, and that means no more night-light. Then a flashlight beam appears--it's her grandmother, who invites her into a lively game of shadow play. And soon the two of them are having a grand adventure, and the girl's faraway family starts feeling more like friends. Award-winning author Padma Venkatraman's picture book debut shows the joy of connecting through imaginative play, and Nicole Wong's evocative illustrations bring the story to brilliant life." --  |c Provided by publisher.
