Book Overview

This gorgeously illustrated classic picture book celebrates multicultural families and is "as warm and comforting as homemade soup" (Publishers Weekly).

Marisa's family members hail from many different cultures--Korean, Japanese, Chinese, Hawaiian--but they have one thing in common: They all love dumpling soup! On New Year's Eve, they come from all over Oahu to gather at Grandma's house, and this year, it's Marisa turn to help make the dumplings. But it's a big responsibility! Will anyone want to eat her funny-looking mandoo? Set in the Hawaiian islands, this beloved story celebrates differences as well as the delicious shared traditions and abundant love that truly make a family.
