‘Dim Sum Palace’ with story and art by X. Fang is a picture book about a dream to a delicious place.

Tomorrow Liddy and her family are going to their favorite dim sum restaurant. Tonight Liddy is so excited that she dreams of a fantastic restaurant filled with dumplings, bao, and buns. Liddy goes on an eating binge. Liddy watches the busy cooks, and accidentally falls in the bowl full of dumpling filling. She gets rolled into a dumpling and rolled out to the Empress. Has Liddy’s dream of food become a nightmare?

This was a fun book full of funny pictures and delicious food. I think young readers will enjoy reading this.
