In this story about the Ching Ming Festival, or Tomb-Sweeping Day, a young girl and her Chinese-American

family come together to share memories of the past over a delicious feast.In the spring, Lily and her relatives

gather for the Ching Ming Festival to honor their beloved ancestors. The day is full of joy and community, but

also reverence and remembrance. As Lily zips between playing Chinese checkers with her cousin and helping

her grandparents prepare a delicious meal for the family, a second narrative unfolds to reveal the sacrifices

her great-great-grandpa had to make to settle in America. Both a tale honoring the efforts of the first Chinese

American immigrants and a story of a family coming together, Clear and Bright is a celebration of Chinese

heritage, cultural tradition, and the ancestral love that spans generations.
