展开
A humorous and heartfelt tale about the bitterness of liangcha, a popular tea from traditional Chinese medicine, and the sweetness of a Waipo (grandmother).
This tender and warm picture book is a touching ode to grandparents and family traditions—even picky eating.
Mimi's Waipo loves liangcha, but Mimi thinks her grandmother's favorite tea is just too bitter.
It burns her lips, it tastes sour on her tongue, and it smells like her grandfather's socks—yuck!
Mimi secretly feeds her liangcha to the fish, and hides it in a plant, and pours it down the sink—anything to avoid drinking it again. But Waipo has an idea. One morning, she makes a new batch of liangcha for them to share. Will Waipo's secret ingredient be enough to win Mimi over?
This book is about two different flavors of love. Other marketing points: a little knowledge about TCM (traditional Chinese medicine), and intergenerational love between a grandmother and granddaughter. Not to mention: gorgeous illustrations.

媒体评论
"A great story for libraries looking for representation of Chinese culture, of intergenerational relationships, and of trying new things; it's also something of an ode to the fact that grandmothers were once young"—School Library Journal
"Warm peachy and yellow tones cast a cozy glow over this multigenerational exchange of a culturally specific family tradition...A stirring addition to the rapidly expanding collection of diverse food stories."—Booklist
"The depiction of affection between a grandparent and grandchild and the importance of empathy . . . are universal. A heartwarming tribute to intergenerational connection."—Kirkus
