Liddy is so excited about going to the Dim Sum Palace tomorrow with herfamily that she can't sleep. So when a delicious smell wafts into her room, shehops out of bed, opens her door and steps into . . . an actual palace of dimsum! There are dumplings, baos, buns and more delicious treats than one girlcan possibly eat. Liddy just has to take a bite, but she slips and falls . . . into abowl of dumpling filling. The chefs are so busy rolling, folding and pinchingdough that they don't notice they've prepared a most unusual dumpling for theEmpress - a Liddy dumpling! Worst of all, she looks good enough to eat . . .

This deliciously humorous debut picture book, inspired by X. Fang's memoriesas a child of epic dim sum feasts, is a dreamworld adventure that is at oncea glorious celebration of the sensory world of childhood and a loving helpingof food, family and culture.

Reviews for Dim Sum Palace

A child takes a fantastical journey to the Dim Sum Palace... Both the theme and look are reminiscent of Maurice Sendak's In the Night Kitchen... A real (delicious) trip * Kirkus *
