A lyrical ode to the warmth, comfort, and traditions of tea drinking, from award-winning author Adib Khorram and Caldecott Honor and the APALA winner Hanna Cha

Tea is a plant. Tea is a ceremony. But most of all, tea is love.


Whether it's part of an elaborate ceremony, or a quiet cup brewed for one, tea holds a special place in the hearts of millions. This poignant, lovely picture book celebrates the practice of tea-drinking across various cultures and countries, and meditates on the many meaning the ritual holds.

Adib Khorram lives in Kansas City, Missouri. When he isn’t writing (or at his day job as a graphic designer), you can probably find him trying to get his hundred-yard freestyle under a minute, learning to a Lutz jump, or steeping a cup of oolong. View titles by Adib Khorram

“Khorram underscores the special place this ubiquitous beverage holds for people all over the globe… Readers will eagerly pore over the illustrations, each bustling with movement and telling a story all its own. As richly fortifying as the beverage it spotlights.” —Kirkus

“A beautifully illustrated, delightfully warm picture book about how tea unites people—best read with a cup of tea.” —Booklist

“A spare narrative and enticing hand-drawn images conjure the enjoyment of sipping tea in this warming collaboration.” —Publishers Weekly
