Created by award winning author-illustrator 許智偉, this unique "dual direction" heartwarming book celebrates how two family's foods & traditions come together during a time of reunion!
"It's Lunar New Year, which means it's time for radish cake and turnip cake, especially the ones prepared at home! Fragrant and soft, they're the best!"
The story unfolds as two families embark on the preparation and shopping for radish cake and turnip cake before the New Year. A little boy accompanies his mother to the field to harvest radishes and to the neighbour's house to grind rice paste.
Simultaneously, a little girl helps her mother purchase ingredients for fried turnip cakes and assists in stir-frying. Whether steamed, fried, or made into soup, both radish cake and turnip cake are not only delicious but also brimming with the love and flavorus of home.
As the boy and girl grow up and start their own families, they share their most cherished New Year memories with their children, weaving two distinct stories into one grand family reunion dinner. Regardless of whether it's radish cake or turnip cake, the most delicious moments are those enjoyed with family!
