Trade Review
“Chen draws on his experience as a figure skater and Olympic gold medalist in this uplifting story about finding joy in one’s passion. Nam’s graceful, color-saturated paint and paper collage art has a subtle 3D effect.” — Publishers Weekly “Nam’s illustrations capture Wei’s charming family life but are most impressive when revealing his strength and beauty on the ice; full-bleed spreads feel like slow-motion breakdowns of each jump. Any reader who has had fun chased aside by the pressure of expectations will find solace in this tale. An inspiring, invigorating story about the value of practice, perseverance—and joy!” — Kirkus Reviews
