About This Book Red Bean Grandma is a composite of several elderly people around me. Their environments, languages, and lives are different, yet they share a common trait—immense vitality, nothing can stump them. My maternal grandmother, with a rolling pin, turned flour into various forms to feed every little belly. The Hakka grandmother is an industrious plant gatherer; the mountains, fields, and her small yard are her surprising larders. "Female power" from the past to the present is truly strong! The stove is the stage. Grandma's taste is the taste of home. Illustrator / Xu Fangru About Me A full-time mom and part-time illustrator, I enjoy drawing late at night. Only in the quiet of the night can I calm my mind; during the day, there are too many temptations and household chores to handle. Switching channels between my children and work, my brain often glitches. About This Book During the drawing process, I realized I knew too few plants, so the preliminary research took some time. In the past, I tended to sketch plants with a freehand style, but this time, a bit of scientific spirit was needed to draw the flowers and grasses delicately. For me, this was truly a big challenge! While drawing late at night, I often asked my husband to pose as a model for the characters' actions. When he deliberately exaggerated and struck some poses, my fatigue instantly vanished. Through this picture book, my skills have improved again! 【Audio-Visual Preview】 https://youtu.be/f-wJGwOPHIE 【Detailed Information】 Specifications: Hardcover / Full Color Printing Dimensions: 24×22.6CM Pages: 36 pages Rating: General Audiences Place of Publication: Taiwan ISBN: 9789576085949
