Publisher's Summary

A rich, warm, intergenerational time-travel story for ages nine and up

Maya loves to cook with her grandmother - her Halmunee - to connect with the rich family history associated with each dish, a history Maya's mom would prefer stayed in the past. While cooking with Halmunee, something remarkable happens - the food creates such a strong memory that Maya and Halmunee are transported back in time through the memory itself. Halmunee explains that the women in her family have the gift of time travel through food and Maya can do it too, if she practices. While eating her way through the past, Maya meets Jeff: another young time traveler who brings her to the Golden Orchard, a garden of memories filled with the trees of so many people's lives. Maya learns that time moves in ways she couldn't imagine and sometimes family keep their memories secret to protect the ones they love.

The Golden Orchard

I loved this book. The rich descriptions & emotions pull you into Maya’s journey. Family history & relationships can be complicated & difficult, & Maya’s desire to learn more about her family is relatable. I also loved the time travel aspect of the story. I definitely plan to listen again. I’d happily recommend this book to anyone.
