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.Binding Type: Hardcover

quick set up
Color: Rechargeable Set with Base
So far, 2 weeks, it was easy to fill, charged quickly, looks lovely, easy adjustment on the course to fine dial, great value, so far. and mush less clutter-y than the four different items I had to use to get both fine and course grands. Light weight and it appears to be built to last.

Game changer!
Color: Stainless Steel, Color: Stainless Steel
This electric salt and pepper grinder set is an absolute game-changer. With a generous capacity, you’ll refill far less often, and the rechargeable base keeps everything powered—no more hunting for batteries. The adjustable coarseness delivers perfect results every time, whether you’re finishing a dish with a fine seasoning or adding a bold, coarse grind. The built-in LED light gives you precise control, and the grinders themselves feel solid, high-quality, and impressively sleek. They look stunning on any counter or dinner table. If you want to elevate your kitchen experience—or give a gift that truly impresses—this set is a clear winner.

Excellent rechargeable salt & pepper grinders
Color: Stainless Steel
Love these rechargeable, refillable, salt & pepper grinders. Grinders work great & easy to set the grind. Also, easy to use, easy to clean and recharge. Much better than the battery power grinders.

Beautiful, functional, easy on hands, push button
Color: Stainless Steel
Update: these are great! I only charged them the day they arrived 3 months ago from Amazon, and have not had to charge them yet. They work efficiently every time my whole family loves using them,,especially the grandkids.
I specifically wanted "push button" , and easy-rechargeable. I have arthritis so it's pretty amazing and wonderful.
These rechargeable grinders are lightweight when they arrive, and easy to fill from the top.
For each grinder, you will need to turn the top opening slightly to the left to release it, and then pull it open.
My 9yo grandson had to show me.
The salt and pepper grindersmake a relatively, low grinding sound, and have a small, shining,light at the bottom where the salt and pepper come out onto the food. The performance is good, the salt and pepper output seems not too much and not too little.
Charging these grinders was extremely easy, and the little charging unit stand is provided with a C charger which you can connect into the back of the charging unit, and a USB connection on the other end for the wall .
