Back to the Countryside
by Wan Wan
Description
Tomb-sweeping is an unique Chinese tradition, and a ritual containing special significance. The story is about a little girl, who went back to the family's hometown in the countryside with her parents, where they had a reunion with her uncles, aunties and other relatives. They were gathering for sweeping the family tombs. From what the little girl has seen, the readers may feel that, behind this profound and historical tradition, it's all about family's love, the happiness of childhood and the cherished memory for grandparents.
