Last year I got an email from Newbery Honor winning author Grace Lin. She had an idea for an episode of The Yarn. I loved the idea, but it sounded tricky. Lots of moving pieces. I figured that it wouldn’t hurt to try. I’m so glad I decided to roll with Grace’s idea.

This episodes include:

  • Grace reading the email she sent me with the idea for this episode
  • An interview with Grace’s BFF (and editor) Alvina Ling
  • An ending that may require tissues
