Description

Yoomi loves Grandma’s cooking—except for stinky, spicy kimchi, the pickled cabbage condiment served at Korean meals.   “You can’t eat it because you’re a baby,” her brothers tease. And they don’t play with babies. Determined to prove she’s not a baby, Yoomi tries to find a way to make kimchi taste better—but not even ice cream can help. Luckily, Grandma has a good idea, and soon everyone has a new food to enjoy.    Celebrating family, food, and growing up, this story about a Korean-American family will appeal to picky eaters and budding foodies alike.  Aram Kim’s lively art is filled with expressive characters and meticulous details—and of course, mouth-watering illustrations of traditional Korean dishes and ingredients.    Backmatter includes information about kimchi and how it’s made, and best of all, a recipe for Grandma’s kimchi pancakes to try yourself!   For more about Yoomi and her family, don’t miss Let’s Go to Taekwondo! by Aram Kim.    A Junior Library Guild Selection!
