Home in a Lunchbox

內容簡介

內容簡介 獲得 美國凱迪克繪本獎Cherry Mo的驚艷首作，講述了一位年輕女孩移民到美國，並在一個意想不到的地方找到了家的故事。當Jun從香港搬到美國時，她唯一知道的單詞是「hello」、「thank you」、「I don’t know」和「toilet」。她的新學校讓她感到既陌生又可怕。但當她打開午餐盒，發現裡面是她最喜歡的餐點——像是包子、餃子和小白菜——她突然明白家不如想像那麼遙遠。透過豐富的插圖和簡短的對話，Cherry Mo那本令人屏息的美麗首本繪本，提醒讀者，友誼和歸屬感能在每一口食物中找到。**WINNER OF THE CALDECOTT HONOR**Cherry Mo's stunning debut is about a young girl who immigrates to America and finds home in an unexpected place.When Jun moves from Hong Kong to America, the only words she knows are hello, thank you, I don’t know, and toilet.

This book is a standout and a delicious one to boot. It ain't preachy. It ain't smarmy. It's just plain good." —Betsy Bird, Fuse 8"A touching and resonant story with universal themes of wanting to belong and finding common ground." —Booklist"Round-faced, endearing Jun is utterly expressive; her sadness upon returning home each day is especially palpable...A touching immigrant story that hits the heart—and stomach." —Kirkus Reviews"This debut picture book captures the immigrant experience, highlighting the impact of small gestures of kindness and celebrating the unifying power of food across cultures and languages." —Horn Book“Lushly illustrated but with carefully sparse text, Home in a Lunchbox is a sensitive and warm debut. This book is a reminder for grown-ups of how differences can bring us together, and a story for children about making friends, bad days, and the warmth and comfort food from home can bring. This story reminds us all how anyone can feel lonely, but small gestures can travel for miles. A beautiful book.”—Erin E. Stead, illustrator of the Caldecott Medal–winning book A Sick Day for Amos McGee“This lushly illustrated book takes readers on a journey of memory and hope, highlighting the power of food to build connections across language, space, and time.”—Joanna Ho, New York Times bestselling author of Eyes That Kiss in the Corners
