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

Excellent Quality and Beautiful!
Color: Natural Pine - Satin Clear Coat Finish, Number Of Shelves: Pack of 2, Size: 16 inch
This is the second order I’ve made of these shelves (a different length and color for a different room). I’ve put up floating shelves before, and over time they listed although they never fell down. Everything about these shelves suggests they will last a long time. The shelves are beautiful, very well sanded and varnished, and the wood grain is lovely (same with the darker shelves). The installation is relatively simple with easy-to-understand instructions and the support that the shelf fits into is sturdy. Everything works as the directions say, and the shelves seem sturdy when installation is complete. The seller clearly takes pride in their product; even the packaging is very carefully and artfully done. A drill makes the job far easier than it would with just a screwdriver. One set of my shelves are placed one directly below another, so it took some time and my 2 foot level to make sure they are vertically even. If the shelves are offset from each other, as we did with the first installation, it’s easier and takes less time. I would recommend these to anyone.

Premium Quality Shelves That Look Amazing
Color: American Walnut - Satin Dark Tone, Number Of Shelves: Pack of 3, Size: 36 inch, Color: American Walnut - Satin Dark Tone, Number Of Shelves: Pack of 3, Size: 36 inch
For my Kitchen remodel, I’ve ordered several of these shelves, in different lengths, and I’ve been consistently impressed with the quality. I had never installed floating shelves before, but the process was surprisingly straightforward even when I customized my own corner setup.
The shelves are beautiful, made from real wood with exquisite grain patterns, and they arrive very well sanded and varnished. The installation instructions are clear and easy to follow, and the mounting bracket is sturdy with an excellent precision fit. Once installed, the shelves feel extremely solid and secure.
This company clearly takes pride in its products. Even the packaging is carefully and thoughtfully done. With some careful measuring, clamps, and a pocket hole jig, I was able to combine two different shelf sizes to create a custom corner shelf that turned out great.
I highly recommend these shelves and will definitely continue purchasing them as I add more to my home.

Premium Quality Floating Shelves That Exceeded Expectations
Color: Golden Oak - Light Woodgrain, Number Of Shelves: Pack of 2, Size: 30 inch, Color: Golden Oak - Light Woodgrain, Number Of Shelves: Pack of 2, Size: 30 inch
These floating shelves are absolutely excellent quality. Everything from the packaging to the final product was top notch. The shelves arrived extremely well protected, and you could immediately tell the company takes pride in their product. The finish and craftsmanship are beautiful, the hardware feels solid, and installation was straightforward. Once mounted, they looked even better than expected and feel very sturdy. The golden oak finish adds a clean, modern, high end look to the room. Highly recommend if you’re looking for floating shelves that actually look and feel premium.

Clean Aesthetic, Limited Adjustment on Brackets
Color: Natural Pine - Satin Clear Coat Finish, Number Of Shelves: Pack of 2, Size: 16 inch
These shelves look really nice once installed—the natural wood finish gives a clean, high-end look that fits well with pretty much any space. Installation was straightforward and didn’t take much time, which I appreciated.
My only downside is the bracket design. I wish it had some kind of micro-adjustment option after drilling, because if your holes aren’t perfectly aligned the first time, it can be a bit frustrating to get everything level.
Overall though, still a solid product—sturdy, good quality, and definitely adds a nice aesthetic to the wall.

I used these shelves for my espresso area and I love them. The unboxing experience was so nice, it caught me off guard! Everything felt very handcrafted and sturdy. The finish on the real wood was very nice. It came with everything I needed for installation, which was very convenient. Installation was super easy and everything fit together perfectly. I am very pleased with these shelves!
