Author(s) and Guest(s)

Rose Lewis

A tender exploration of cultural discovery, Orange Peel’s Pocket (Abrams, $16.95), written by Rose Lewis and illustrated by Grace Zong, follows a young Chinese girl as she goes in search of answers about her native land by visiting local, independent businesses. As the owners of shops in her community share information about China, the surprise gifts they slip into Orange Peel’s pocket help to link her to the place where she was born.  Lewis is the New York Times bestselling author of I Love You Like Crazy Cakes.
