Stephanie Ellen Sy: The Quest for the Longest Noodle, Gebunden

Klappentext

Join one boy on a quest for the longest, luckiest noodle for his great-grandmother's birthday in this deliciously fun celebration of tradition, community, connection---and, of course, noodles.

Ellis' Tai Ma is turning one hundred! To celebrate, Ellis sets out on a quest to find the longest, luckiest noodle for a special bowl of Long Life Noodles. (The longer the noodle, the longer she'll live!)

Along the way, he discovers that Tai Ma has touched the lives of everyone in town---each neighbor eager to share fond memories and their own culture's noodles for her birthday meal. But spaghetti? Not long enough. Udon? Not even close! Will Ellis ever find the longest noodle?

Inspired by the author's own family and featuring phrases in multiple languages and culinary traditions from around the world, this vibrant story shows that the true secret to a long life isn't in the length of the noodle---it's in the connections that fill a life with meaning. Includes fold-out pages to reveal the longest noodle and a guide for making your own bowl of Long Life Noodles at home!
