Katie loves spending time with her grandmother, GninGnin. They teach each other fun things, from dressing up dolls to making delicious traditional rice dumplings. More than anything, Katie wants to join GninGnin at her job cracking crabs at the busy cannery. One day, Katie finally gets her wish, but the cannery is not what she expected at all. She watches her grandmother swing a heavy mallet from sunrise to sunset in a loud, smelly room, working incredibly hard just to earn bus fare and a simple fish for dinner. That evening, as they share a wonderful meal cooked with love as strong as ginger, Katie gains a deep new understanding of her grandmother. This beautiful and moving story reveals the amazing sacrifices older generations make to give their families a bright and happy future.
