![]() ![]() How long can Jingwen and Yanghao keep their illicit cake-baking a secret? Only time will tell… The only problem is their mother has forbidden them to bake while she is out. However, when Jingwen’s annoying little brother Yanghao pleads with him to bake the fancy cakes they had dreamed about with their father when their plan had still been to open a bakery in Australia, Jingwen starts to feel a glimmer of happiness. Their mother can offer very little help since she works long hours and is hardly ever home. Unable to speak or understand much English, surrounded by unfamiliar people and sights, and aching with grief from the loss of his father, it seems like too much to hope that things will ever feel right again. When 10-year-old Jingwen moves to Australia, he can’t help feeling like he’s in an alien world.
