This would be a good book to pair with Dumplings for Lili as it shares dumplings found around the world. Back matter with recipes, maps, and/or traditions would have enhanced the story.
In a story that brings to mind a new twist on "The Gingerbread Boy," a lost dumpling at an international foods festival finds out just how many ways there are to make a dumpling.
The story in this book is quite interesting and funny. In addition to reading about the adventures of the little dumpling, we also learn about various typical dumplings from various places.
