About This Book
This whimsical picture book is a playful take on one of the most beloved summer treats in Korea—patbingsu (shaved ice with sweet red beans).
Deep in the mountains, an elderly woman lives alone, farming fresh fruits and cooking sweet red bean porridge. One day, she sets off to the market to sell her goods, but along the way, snow suddenly begins to fall—even though it’s the middle of summer! Out of the swirling flurry appears a giant white snow tiger, who makes a bold demand:
"Give me something tasty, and I won’t eat you!"
The grandmother offers her lovingly grown fruits one by one—first juicy strawberries, then golden melons, and finally a big, ripe watermelon. The snow tiger grins with delight at the tangy strawberries, dances joyfully after tasting the melons, and devours the watermelon in a flash. But his appetite only grows...
Will the grandmother make it to the market safely?
The Legend of Patbingsu is a delightful and refreshing summer read that tickles the senses with sights, sounds, and flavors, chasing away the heat with every page.
