Book
Maya's grandmother, Halmunee, may be losing her memory, but she hasn't lost her magic touch in the kitchen. Whether she serves salty miyeok-guk or sweet songpyeon, her stories about Korea come to life for Maya. Then one day, something extraordinary happens, one delicious bite transports Maya and Halmunee into one of Halmunee's memories. Suddenly they're in Seoul, and Halmunee is young. This is just the first of many secrets Maya will uncover, that she and her grandmother can travel through time. As Maya eats her way through the past, her questions multiply, until a shocking discovery transforms everything she thought she knew about family, friendship, loss, and time itself.
