Will he find what he is looking for? This story reflects on what it means to be seen. Editors: Della Farrell and Sally Morgridge // Art Director: Kerry Martin // Book Designer: Sian Rips Critical praise for Tea Leaf Eggs: “Tea Leaf eggs has the most authentic and compassionate portrayal of an elder that I’ve seen in a picture book. Hong’s quietly beautiful story shows how love and memory live in our favorite foods, and how we as a community can carry one another through loss. This tender — and delicious — tale will open young hearts.” — Livia Blackburne, New York Times Bestselling Author of I Dream of Popo and Bing’s Cherries Go behind the scenes @karentellsstories!
