Weeks before her twenty-eighth birthday, Snow White Bui quit her job and left everything she had built in Los Angeles, California to recalibrate the direction of her life. She realized she had strayed from the person she'd once been-a young woman in pursuit of knowledge and wisdom-in favor of career success and being cool. Spurred by news of the shooting of black parishioners at a church in Charleston, South Carolina, she decided to embark on an improvised, solitary journey to learn more about the history and people of the US. With her passion project, LESSONS FOR LIFE PROJECT, as a driving intention, Snow White engaged with Americans across twenty-five states, asking them to share their biggest life lessons. Not only did she learn from Americans' diverse lived experiences, she also discovered the richness of life that comes from embracing the humanity in ourselves and in each other. THE FREEDOM TO WONDER is an inspiring story about an Asian American woman's journey to connect with the heart of America.

In this magical debut, a couple's lives are changed forever by the arrival of a little girl, wild and secretive, on their snowy doorstep. Alaska, 1920: a brutal place to homestead, and especially tough for recent arrivals Jack and Mabel. Childless, they are drifting apart -- he breaking under the weight of the work of the farm; she crumbling from loneliness and despair. In a moment of levity during the season's first snowfall, they build a child out of snow. The next morning the snow child is gone -- but they glimpse a young, blonde-haired girl running through the trees. This little girl, who calls herself Faina, seems to be a child of the woods. She hunts with a red fox at her side, skims lightly across the snow, and somehow survives alone in the Alaskan wilderness. As Jack and Mabel struggle to understand this child who could have stepped from the pages of a fairy tale, they come to love her as their own daughter. But in this beautiful, violent place things are rarely as they appear, and what they eventually learn about Faina will transform all of them.
