An amazing Treasure. Highly reccommended

Thank you Grace Lin. What a beautiful and engaging book . ‘When The Sea Turned To Silver’ is a rare & delightful reading experience. My absolute favorite of them all!!
I like that each book may be read by itself . Though the stories weave together.. it is not a “series”.

Like a Chinese one thousand and one nights

I am a twelve year old boy who loves culture and this book fascinated me. The fact that stories never die is very present as well as the love of culture building stories. I would recommend this book to children fascinated by culture as well as parents who want to show their children this concept of a story and it's importance.

PS: this novel was so intriguing that I took time off playing video games just to write this review.

Beautifully told story

My 6 year old and I listened to this on a road trip and loved every bit of it. The author tells the story with beautiful images that bring it to life for kids. Highly recommend.

Really amazing book

they say sequels are never better than the original, but I'd say this one proved that generalization, wrong!

Excellent story telling!

If you’re a lover of stories woven in and through each other and characters whose moral compass is tested, but tried and true, this is an excellent read. We listened as a family and loved it! It’s one that I could see us listening to multiple times because the stories are so delicately and well interwoven that as the pieces start coming together you wonder what all you missed the first time and get excited to listen again! If it’s a little challenging to get started…hang in there! It just keeps getting better and better.

Enjoyable story

We listened because this was an OBOB book and found we really enjoyed the story. We look forward to the next book.

The way they had story’s within the whole book

Nothing. I loved the whole story and I simply loved every thing about this book

Beautiful

I read this book when I was a child and the story, the description, and the details are stunning. The narrator has a beautiful voice and the stories within the book are captivating. I highly recommend listening or reading this book.
