"What is the best thing about where you live? Share something unusual about it."
I smiled as I wrote "Peaches."
The peaches grown in Bucheon are the best in all of South Korea, and a rare treat for a young Yangsook. She dreams of a peach orchard where she can play and eat as much of the delicious fruit as she wishes. Then one day, after hours of a sudden heavy downpour, the sky begins to rain peaches. Yangsook finds herself in peach heaven--until she remembers the farmers who have lost their harvest and decides she must help them.
Fully revised and re-illustrated, Peach Heaven is a timeless ode to human kindness and childhood wonder based on the author's early life.
