Author's Message: Giving Back One Book at a Time Fundraiser

With each book purchased, one family in Vietnam’s Southern Region will receive a meal. As the TET (Lunar New Year) celebrations and holiday season come to a close, this book—created with inspiration from the rich culture and spirit of Vietnam’s southern region—will continue to support and uplift the communities that played a central role in its creation.

Thank you for being part of this mission through your purchase and for Book-A-Meal! I invite you to follow my Author Page for sneak peeks, press releases, and updates on the ongoing impact of this fundraiser.

If you happen to visit the beautiful Southern Region of Vietnam—a place where the old ways of life are still cherished—and share your experience on social media, please use #banoi2025. I’d love to hear what resonates with you most, or feel free to email me directly (address is printed in the book). Let’s compare notes on what you love most about this place—I’m curious if your favorite flavor will match mine! :) This book contains my two favorite fruits of the region, one of which is a new fruit that was ready to be harvested in late 2024 for the first time in the world! (Sadly the fruit is not available for purchase at markets within the USA).

Thank you for helping fulfill a lifelong dream of mine: for every child to understand their Vietnamese heritage, no matter where they are in the world. Let’s continue to make the world a better place, one book at a time. In love and light, Sarah
