This stunning fantasy inspired by Chinese folklore is a companion novel to Starry River of the Sky and the New York Times bestselling and National Book Award finalist When the Sea Turned to Silver

In the valley of Fruitless mountain, a young girl named Minli lives in a ramshackle hut with her parents. In the evenings, her father regales her with old folktales of the Jade Dragon and the Old Man on the Moon, who knows the answers to all of life's questions. Inspired by these stories, Minli sets off on an extraordinary journey to find the Old Man on the Moon to ask him how she can change her family's fortune. She encounters an assorted cast of characters and magical creatures along the way, including a dragon who accompanies her on her quest for the ultimate answer.

Grace Lin, author of the beloved Year of the Dog and Year of the Rat returns with a wondrous story of adventure, faith, and friendship. A fantasy crossed with Chinese folklore, Where the Mountain Meets the Moon is a timeless story reminiscent of The Wizard of Oz and Kelly Barnhill's The Girl Who Drank the Moon. Her beautiful illustrations, printed in full-color, accompany the text throughout. Once again, she has created a charming, engaging book for young readers.

My skin loves this.
This might be the best face wash I’ve ever used, and I do NOT say that lightly. I have it on subscription because I panic a little at the thought of running out. For context: my skin has gone from oily, acne-prone chaos to “surprise! now you’re dry and post-menopausal” and somehow this cleanser handles ALL of it beautifully. It cleans deeply without stripping my skin, leaves my face feeling soft instead of tight, and somehow manages to make my skin look calmer, smoother, and less angry overall. My pores even look better. Also… the texture? Weirdly satisfying!! It has this rich, creamy feel that feels luxurious without being heavy. Now for my one complaint: The cap sucks and we are in an ongoing toxic relationship. The cleanser itself is elegant Korean skincare perfection. 5 stars!

Best Cleanser Ever
Best!!!!!! I finished 2 bottles and just got the 3rd. Makes my skin so smooth. Not drying at all. Very affordable too. Has small pores inside that does micro exfoliation. Very lightweight as well. I use it everyday, some days more than once.

Great foaming facewash
I love this face-wash! It foams up nicely, is very light and does a great job of removing makeup, oil & dirt - leaving your skin feeling clean. I have combination skin, am not prone to acne, but do occasionally get a pimple every now and then. If you’re looking for a nice, light foaming face wash, that doesn’t burn or leave residue, try this! I highly recommend it!

Refreshing and gentle — a solid cleanser for sensitive skin!
Refreshing and gentle — a solid cleanser for sensitive skin! I’ve been using the Anua Heartleaf Quercetinol Pore Deep Cleansing Foam for a few weeks now, and it’s become one of my favorite daily face washes. The texture is creamy and creates a soft foam that feels gentle but still gives a deep clean. I have combination skin with visible pores around my nose, and this cleanser helps control oil without leaving my skin tight or dry. The heartleaf and quercetinol ingredients really seem to calm redness and irritation — perfect if you have sensitive or reactive skin. My pores look a bit smaller and my skin feels smoother overall. It also has a very mild, clean scent that doesn’t linger. The only small downside is that it can take a little effort to rinse completely if you use too much product. Otherwise, it’s great value for the quality and performance.
