Impatient with the constraints put on her as an aristocratic girl living in Korea, twelve-year-old Jade Blossom determines to see beyond her small world.
- Tapestry of Grace families: Read for 1 week in Year 4 Unit 3.
List Price: 7.99
Jade never ventures beyond the walls of her family’s Inner Court; in seventeenth-century Korea, a girl of good family does not leave home until she marries. She is enthralled by her older brother’s stories about trips to the market and to the ancestral grave sites in the mountains, about reading and painting, about his conversations with their father about business and politics and adventures only boys can have. Jade accepts her destiny, and yet she is endlessly curious about what lies beyond the walls.
