The river behind her home flowed from the sky and through the mountains. You'd never tasted anything so clear and so cold. Back in Ah Ma's village, they didn't have geese. They had birds washed in rainbows. And if you fed them tofu from your hand, they would talk! Back in Ah Ma's village sparrows would lay eggs in the cracks of mud homes. Once Ah Ma tried to take an egg and was bitten by teeny tiny dragon! Now Ah Ma lives in North America, a place that must seem dull by comparison. But her granddaughter is reassured that geese or no geese, snow or no snow, home is always a magical place when it's shared with the people you love."--  |c Provided by publisher.
