A Chinese-American family is driving through cornfields somewhere in Ohio when the parents see watercress on the side of the road. “As soon as they get out of the car, they extract from the bottom of the trunk a brown paper bag, rusty scissors, and their nostalgia for China.” If the son takes pleasure in harvesting the plant, his sister is ashamed. In the evening, while they are gathered around a dish of watercress, she sulks and demands vegetables bought at the store, complains about everything that is salvaged: clothes, furniture, etc. The mother will have to tell the story of her family's journey so that the child becomes aware of what her ancestors went through. She will say to herself: “from the taste of this watercress, we have made a new memory.” This magnificent album was awarded the Caldecott Medal.
