Nabi Tries Kimchi is a delightful early reader that follows Nabi Park, a cheerful Korean American girl with a big imagination and a cautious appetite. When her family travels to Korea for winter break, Nabi finds herself in the middle of a kimchi-making party-complete with a kiddie pool full of cabbage, laughter, and a lot of red paste!
At first, she's hesitant. Kimchi is too spicy and strange. But with Grandma's encouragement and a surprising ingredient, Nabi bravely takes a bite-and discovers something delicious.
This charming story introduces young readers ages 57 to:
1. Korean food and cultural traditions
2. The power of family and intergenerational connection
3. The courage it takes to try something new
Perfect for read-alouds at home or in classrooms, Nabi Tries Kimchi features:
1. Playful, full-color illustrations
2. A bonus coloring page
3. QR code info inside to keep the adventure going!
Whether your child loves kimchi or has never heard of it, this heartwarming book will inspire curiosity, cultural pride, and adventurous eating-one crunchy bite at a time.
