“A fascinating historical character is presented in terms easy for young children to appreciate.” —Kirkus Reviews

How far can an apron,
a bowl, or a book
take one small Chinese girl
with a passion to cook?
From peach blossom Beijing,
to crisp Cambridge snow,
how far will her dumpling dreams
help Joyce Chen go?
