A moving title, which introduces the concept of death and adoption.
A slightly sad yet beautiful story illustrated in 中国风!
This book is about a little girl named 满月 because she was born on a day when the moon was at its fullest. She lost her parents at a tender age, first her dad, then her mum. Before her passing, 满月's mum told her that Daddy and Mummy will visit her on a day with a full moon.
A grandpa in the same village took care of 满月 and true enough, soon, on a day with the bright round moon, a car bringing a new Daddy and Mummy came to visit 满月, adopting her as their own.
An especially touching part is when 满月 returns with her adoptive parents the following Mid-Autumn Festival to visit the village grandpa, with a box of mooncakes. That scene is just etched into our minds!
做人要饮水思源。
