Spring is almost here and Tet is even closer.
A celebration for the first morning of the first
day of the new year.
It's almost time for Tet, the Vietnamese New Year, which for two excited siblings means a sleepover at their Ba's house, where she will teach them to make banh chung, the traditional New Year cakes. When the cakes take forever to steam and the boredom starts to set in, Ba begins to tell the thrilling tale of an ancient prince, a contest, and how banh chung came to be.
Legendary Cakes is a mouth-watering celebration of how food, stories, and holidays keep cultures alive for future generations.
Kerisa Greene is a mixed Asian American author and illustrator who loves to eat giant bowls of ph?, especially when her grandmother makes them. When she's not drawing or crafting stories you can find Kerisa munching on chocolate chip cookies, exploring new places, and petting every dog that walks by.
