Celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival with this sweet story of food and family!

Jade and Crystal love the Mid-Autumn Festival because it means it’s time to make a tasty treat—mooncakes! Crystal's favorite part of the delicious dessert made of lotus seed paste is the yummy salted egg yolk at the center, meant to represent the moon. Join the sisters as they gather with their family for a memorable meal together! 

Complete with fun facts about the holiday, young listeners will want to revisit this story again and again.

Benson Shum is an author-illustrator who enjoys creating and telling stories through animation and illustration. He is originally from Vancouver, British Columbia, but now lives in sunny southern California.

“[A] cozy introduction to the Mid-Autumn Festival. Shum gently conveys the warmth and joy of this celebration; he wraps up with a retelling of the legend of Change’e, the moon goddess.” Kirkus

“[A] fun teaching tool for children who are not familiar with the holiday [and] a cute and accessible introduction to the Mid-Autumn Festival.” School Library Journal Expand reviews
