Click, clack, whirrr! Lin and her grandma, NaiNai, are making tofu from scratch. As NaiNai works through each step, from blending soybeans to pressing the curds, Lin grows impatient.
But she soon discovers that making tofu takes time, and the whole universe: seeds and soil, sunshine and cloth, and most of all, time spent with someone you love. A warm story about patience and a modern Chinese American family.
