Noodles on a bicycle / written by Kyo Maclear ; illustrated by Gracey Zhang.
When the deliverymen set off in the morning, the children wait for the flicker of pedal and wheel. It’s the demae--delivery men--setting off to deliver steaming trays of noodles to hungry customers all over the city. They are acrobats: whizzing past other bicycles, soaring around curves, avoiding the black smoke of motorcycles. When the children see them, they want to be them. And so they practice with bowls of wobbling water stacked on trays. The day passes, and, finally, exhausted, the demae return home, to their families, and, yes, to steaming bowls of noodles. -- Provided by publisher.
