Description
In this poignant coming-of-age story, young Katie Takeshima navigates the complexities of family, identity, and belonging through the eyes of her older sister, Lynn. When their family relocates from Iowa to rural Georgia, Lynn’s vibrant spirit and unique perspective help Katie understand the world around them, from the curious stares of strangers to the quiet rhythms of their new Southern home. As they face life's challenges together, Katie learns profound lessons about love, loss, and the enduring strength of sisterhood, all while trying to capture the 'glittering' essence of her beloved sibling.
