But this delicious little nián-gão has other ideas. \"Ai yo! I don't think so!\" it cries, coming to life and escaping. \u003cbr\u003e Ming, Cong, little Da and their parents chase the nián-gão all over the village until it runs into a hungry, old woman and sends her tumbling to the ground. Though Da is a small boy, his heart is big enough to share the treat with her, even though that leaves Da's family with nothing to eat for their own celebration. But the Changs' generosity doesn't go unnoticed. When they return home, they find the Kitchen God has left a wonderful surprise for them. \u003cbr\u003e Ying Chang Compestine's heartwarming story conveys an important and poignant message about sharing and compassion. Tungwai Chau's soft and evocative illustrations complete this tender holiday story.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Simon \u0026 Schuster Books for Young Readers","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45153988182167,"sku":"9780689829727","price":1316.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780689829727.webp?v=1767661643","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-runaway-rice-cake-9780689829727","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
