Join High Five Books and local author Katrina Goldsaito for a celebratory launch of her new picture book, WHEN CHERRY BLOSSOMS FALL, on Saturday, February 21, from 10-10:30am.
ABOUT 'WHEN CHERRY BLOSSOMS FALL'
Little Yuna can’t wait for her great-grandmother’s cherry tree to bloom. She and her hībāchan spend each day outside, watching the tree’s flowers unfurl.
But once the tree blooms, the moment is so brief before it loses its petals again—this is what her hībāchan calls mono no aware. It isn’t until her great grandmother—and the petals she loves—are gone that Yuna finally understands what the phrase really means: an awareness of something’s impermanence.
