Celebrate the joy of tea as it is shared around the world. The book shows the power of tea in families as memory and between friends as gifts. It looks at learning about tea in various ways. Tea can also be shared online, in large gatherings or quietly for just one or two. Throughout all the ways to drink and share tea though, it is love. 

Through gentle poetic language, readers are invited to see tea as a universal pleasure and source of connection. This book, written by an award-winning author, is perfect for sharing aloud with very simple lines that are evocative. The illustrations, by a Caldecott Honor winner, have tea swirling across the pages in a variety of pots, cups and holders. She shares a vast array of cultures as the tea weaves new connections. 

A delicious delight of a book. Appropriate for ages 3-5.
