Summary:
"Twelve-year-old
Lizzie
Chu
has lived with her Wai Gong (grandfather) in Glasgow since her parents died when she was a baby. But Wai Gong has been acting different lately. He spends a lot of time talking to his Guan Yin statue--the Chinese goddess of compassion, kindness, and mercy--at his altar and seems to be becoming more forgetful. Even the shared passion he and
Lizzie
have for their favorite show, Strictly Come
Dancing
, seems to be tailing off. When
Lizzie
's friend Chi visits one day dressed as Princess Leia for Comic Con, Wai Gong mistakes her for Guan Yin, and is naturally delighted, and
Lizzie
seizes the opportunity to use Chi as Guan Yin to help her with her grandad. And then
Lizzie
gets an idea: she and Chi can take Wai Gong to Blackpool to the Tower Ballroom, where he'd always dreamed of going. If only she can get her grandad there, she thinks, he'll find some peace, and perhaps things will be OK at home again"-- provided by publisher.
