N2  - "Twelve-year-old Casey is waiting for her father, Barney to hit it big, 'cause when that horse comes in, he tells her, they'll be in the penthouse suite. Instead, Barney ends up in the hospital, and Casey goes to Chinatown to live with her grandmother, Paw-Paw.

Casey feels lost in Chinatown. She's not prepared for the Chinese school; the noisy crowds, missing her father. But Paw-Paw tells her about the mother Casey never knew, her family's owl charm, and her true Chinese name. At last, Chinatown—Paw-Paw's home, her parents' home—begins to be her home, too." --Backcover
