Drawing inspiration from the rich tapestry of dazzling urban life, from bustling grocery stores to the ever-evolving trends in fashion and multifaceted relationships, that led to the birth of Miss Tomato, the shy Miss Onion, the smart Mr. Broccoli, the captivating Miss Mushroom, the gentle Madame Cauliflower, and a host of other delightful characters.

“My residency in New York City sparked the idea of placing these whimsical characters in a fantastical locale known as New Pot City. The essence of my book lies in a collection of illustrations and comic strips, each narrating lively conversations that unfold in this food-centric metropolis, promising a delightful reading experience for both children and adults enchanted by fashion, gourmet cuisine, and nostalgic fairy tales. Beyond the surface entertainment, the heart of this tale beats with a gentle reminder to approach all life forms and our environment with tenderness and respect, “ by Vikki Zhang
