A little girl delights in the ways her eyes “kiss in the corners” and “glow like warm tea,” just like the eyes of her Mama, the eyes of her Amah, the eyes of Mei-Mei. Eyes That Kiss in the Corners is a celebration of the ways a family can share glorious aspects of beauty and can rejoice in those.

You will want to experience all the beauty of these pages, both the beauty of the people, as well as the beauty of the natural world all around them. It's an inclusive idea of beauty, the kind that recognizes and respects “eyes like sapphire lagoons,” too, and but the idea of beauty that doesn't pit one sort against the other, and that's lovely.
