More about the book

A Chinese-American girl longs for a vibrant flower garden, feeling overshadowed by her neighbors' beautiful blooms. In contrast, she and her mother cultivate a garden of unconventional vegetables, which the girl initially finds unattractive. However, as harvest time arrives, the unique vegetables transform into a delicious soup that brings the community together. Through this experience, the young girl discovers that true beauty and value lie beyond appearances, highlighting the importance of celebrating differences and embracing one's heritage.
