This book is illustrated by Joey Chou. And I found it all to be beautiful. Though I must be honest and say that I felt like it all could have been a little prettier, as this art style was not something that I'm used to. Beautiful, but also boring. Still. I loved the look of the characters.
Like with the other picture book by Livia, my one complaint is that I wish it had been longer. I felt like much was missing from this story. I'm giving it four stars. This picture book was such a cute and quick read. And I'm glad that I read it. This story was sweet and beautiful. Full of family love. Just wish there had been more text. Would have loved to see a little more interaction from the characters. But even so. The story was cute. I so loved reading about the girl and her grandma exploring Taiwan in just a day. I wish the girl had a name, though. But I am guessing it was Livia. Which is too cute.
Nainai's Mountain was a cute picture book about a girl and her grandma, her Nainai. It is the first time she is visiting the home country of her Nainai. As the little girl is from California, and Nainai was from Taiwan. I loved the small looks at this country. It seemed awesome. Wish it had been a little better illustrated, but it was still lovely to look at. And it was written well too. Just, yes. I wanted it all to be a little more. But I am guessing a whole lot of kids will adore having it read to them. It was such a lovely little story. Do read this.
