The Hollisters have crossed twelve countries, but their journey through China begins with one small red envelope—and a promise that must be kept by hand.
After leaving the warmth of Sydney, Jen, Doug, Bev, Madison, and Max arrive in freezing Beijing dressed for summer. Doug is determined to master Mandarin, but its tricky tones lead to some spectacular misunderstandings. Meanwhile, ten-year-old Max has only one thing on his mind: delivering a letter from Nai Nai to her little sister in Xi’an. He guards the envelope through an eleven-hour flight and a high-speed train journey, refusing to let it out of his hands.
In Xi’an’s old lanes, beneath the Drum Tower and among the smells of sizzling street food and steaming dumplings, Max finally finds the red door. The woman who opens it is Teacher Chen, a stranger who looks remarkably like Nai Nai. The letter has been forty-two years in the making. But delivering it is only the beginning.
As the Hollisters return to the door, an unexpected friendship begins. Bev finds a way to reach Teacher Chen through the art of making dumplings, while Max meets Xiaoyu, a sharp-witted girl who has already decided he is weird—and that she rather likes him. Across language barriers, generations, and memories, small acts of kindness begin to bridge a distance that has lasted decades.
From the ancient city wall and the Drum Tower to crowded lanes, family guesthouses, and the wonder of China’s everyday life, the Hollisters encounter mishaps, surprises, and moments that stay with them long after the laughter fades. Doug’s attempts at Mandarin provide plenty of comedy, while Bev’s quiet determination and Max’s promise reveal the deeper heart of the adventure.
The Hollisters in China is Book Twelve in The Hollister World Tour, a warm, witty family travel novel about family ties, old promises, new friendships, and the courage it takes to let go—and let people in.
