"Flying the Dragon" by Natalie Dias Lorenzi tells the story of two cousins, Skye and Hiroshi, who are separated by distance but united by a shared love for their Japanese heritage. After Hiroshi moves from Japan to the United States, he struggles with cultural adjustments while Skye grapples with family expectations and her own identity. As they navigate challenges related to friendship, family, and self-acceptance, they discover the importance of their cultural roots and the bonds that bring them together. The story beautifully illustrates the complexities of growing up between two worlds and the power of family and tradition. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
