A joyous celebration of multicultural identity and the many ways our grandparents shape who we are, from debut Chinese-Australian author Jacinta Liu and acclaimed illustrator Freda Chiu.

I have two grandmothers.

One with brown eyes, and one with blue eyes.

One makes dumplings, and one bakes bread.

They are my grandmothers.

One lives in the East, and one lives in the West.

'A personal and heartfelt perspective on family and heritage . . . Readers who enjoyed Randa Abdel-Fattah and Maxine Beneba Clarke's 11 Words for Love or X Fang's Dim Sum Palace will find this picture book equally tender and big-hearted' BOOKS+PUBLISHING

Jacinta Liu (Author) Jacinta Liu is a children's book author and oracle cards creator, with a love for astrology and a wanderlust that explores the realms of body, mind and soul. Her debut picture book, Grandmother from the East, Grandmother from the West, was born out of her own personal upbringing, the struggle to define her identity and, most importantly, her deep gratitude and love for the strong women that helped to shape who she is today. Jacinta is committed to growing as a writer, and as a person. She also authors, illustrates and self-publishes her own sets of oracle cards. Jacinta's oracle cards offer the invitation for children and adults alike, to discover more about themselves - who they are, and why they are here. If you feel something in your heart and want to learn more, you can find her at www.jacintaliu.com or on Instagram @jacintaliu. Freda Chiu (Illustrator) Freda Chiu is an Australian author, illustrator and educator, and a shortlistee for the 2022 CBCA Award for New Illustrator and IBBY Australia Ena Noel Award. As well as illustrating children's books, Freda's work spans comics, editorial illustration, public art and retail graphics.
