Description
Kira-kira is a poignant and uplifting novel about the power of sisterly love and the importance of looking beyond tomorrow.
The story follows Katie Takeshima as she navigates her family's move from Iowa to Georgia, where her sister Lynn teaches her to see the world in a unique and special way. When Lynn becomes ill, Katie must find a way to remind her family that there is always something glittering - kira-kira - in the future.
This heartwarming tale explores themes of family, love, and resilience, and is a moving tribute to the enduring bond between sisters.
