Although Pacy Lin’s parents are Taiwanese, Pacy has never gone to Taiwan and doesn’t want to. But her parents are taking their whole family (them, Pacy, Lissy, and Ki-ki) to Taiwan for a whole month. When they get there, Pacy just eats a bunch of dumplings, because she (and her siblings) have no idea how to speak Chinese, while their parents do know. They (Pacy, Lissy, and Ki-ki) also have classes. Pacy and Lissy hate their classes,calligraphy (Lissy) and Chinese art (Pacy) but Ki-ki loves hers, paper cutting. But soon, Taiwan is slowly becoming like home to the girls, and they begin to feel sad when they have to go. I love this interesting and wonderful story of how people get used to and get to know their parents’ homeland.
