Sweet Potato Moon - Paperback

"When you look at the moon, remember how much I love you!" Appa told Kae Soon.
In SWEET POTATO MOON, Korea's unique flavors and beauty are blended into a tender and brilliantly illustrated story which transcends time, place, and culture. Written for ages four to eight, this picture book is based on Kae Soon Choi's childhood in 1930's Korea. As seven-year-old Kae Soon's family grows bigger and bigger, she feels lonely and makes many mistakes. Her heart-warming discovery in the end redeems all of her mischief and mishaps. This book is an outstanding tool for parents, grandparents, librarians, ESL and elementary school teachers for introducing children to South Korea's lovely landscapes, delicious cuisine, and fascinating traditions. Those who appreciate Jane Yolen's OWL MOON, will relish this lyrically written and stunningly illustrated story about a girl and her daddy.
