Chinese Xia Luoman or American Julia Xia? Having two names is a lot more complicated than it seems.Twelve-year-old Xia Luoman/Julia Xia, the youngest member of the Xia family, is the only person in her Chinese family who has both a Chinese and an English name. And though she has never felt close to either China or America, Luoman knows that being a Xia would be much easier if she could just call herself Chinese. Although, how can she be part of a place that she only visits each summer...a place to which, three years ago, she swore to never return? But when Julia's parents force her and her brother to visit China over February break, Luoman must reconcile her Chinese and American identities or witness the divide within herself break her family apart.Twelve years after the events of The Summer of Someday Dreams, the "newest edition" of the Xia family is here to tell one last story.
