A Buzzby StorybookKimchi Day with Halmoni

The first pages

In late autumn, Ji Ho's halmoni, his grandmother, arrived at their Toronto home with a car full of big napa cabbages. "Kimjang day!" she announced.

Kimjang is when Korean families gather to make lots of kimchi together, enough to last through the cold winter. Aunties, uncles and cousins all came to help.

What happens next? The rest of the story, every painted page and Buzzby's narration open with a free account.

Talk time questions

  • Why do families make so much kimchi at once?
  • Who did Halmoni share a jar with?
  • What food does your family make together?
