一個關於孩子拜訪遠方祖母的溫馨故事,描繪家人如何跨越距離、語言與文化,維繫情感與愛。

凱莉對於要拜訪住在「好遠好遠」地方的祖母——她的阿嬤——感到緊張。
當她和媽媽終於來到台北,凱莉對阿嬤很害羞。雖然她們常常視訊通話,但那畢竟和真實相處不一樣。在台灣,凱莉一開始對不熟悉的語言、習俗、文化和食物感到不自在。

然而,當阿嬤邀請她——「Lái kàn kàn!來看看!」——去溫泉裡玩耍、潑水(其實和家裡的游泳池沒那麼不同),凱莉開始透過阿嬤的眼睛看待這個地方,也發現了那些曾經讓她害怕的事物全新的一面。

很快地,凱莉反過來拉著阿嬤——「Come see!來看看!」——重溫這個地方所有她最喜歡的角落,玩得超級開心!等到回家的時候,她們的視訊通話將會變得格外特別,直到下一次再訪遠方為止。

Riley S. ★★★★★

The signed bookplate inside the cover made this feel like a keepsake, not just another picture book. My daughter keeps asking why Kylie is nervous to meet her grandma, and it's opened up some sweet talks about the family we only see once a year. The free print is already taped above her bed.

Kevin G. ★★★★☆

My niece is half Vietnamese and rarely gets to see her grandma, so the long-distance theme hit close to home. The free print that came with it is a nice bonus, though I wish it were a bit larger for framing. Sweet story overall, and the signed bookplate makes it feel like a real keepsake.
