About

A Bao and his mother went to the street to buy mung beans, and a series of wonderful plots unfolded... A Bao focused on mung beans. From buying mung beans, cooking mung bean soup, eating mung beans to growing mung beans, the author made the whole process very life-like and interesting. Reflecting the strong family relationship between mother and child, the illustrations are vivid, delicate and realistic, touching everyone's childlike innocence.

About the Author

Zeng Yangqing was born in Keelung in 1962. Graduated from the doctoral program of the Department of Chinese Language and Literature, Institute of Chinese Language and Literature, National Taiwan University, and the Institute of Chinese Language and Literature, National Taiwan University. He once served as editor of Hansheng Publishing House and Tianxia Culture Publishing House, creative copywriter of Ogilvy Advertising Company, columnist of China Times Human Supplement, editor-in-chief of China Times Evening News, and lecturer of Tsinghua University and Taiwan University of the Arts. The children's book I am most proud of is, besides "Mom, Buy Mung Beans!"

Wan Guohua, born in 1961, graduated from the Graphic Design Department of Griffith University in Australia and is currently engaged in art design. I like drawing, outings and watching movies. I hope to draw more for children and develop more novel materials to create interesting works.
