Mimi can hardly sleep because she is so excited for Saturday. Today she is visiting her Nana, where the house is always filled with laughter, stories, and the warm smell of home.
At Nana’s house, Mimi is surrounded by family. Aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents gather together to share food, stories, and a special tradition known as the Buun ceremony. As Mimi listens to Nana tell the story of how coffee was first discovered, she begins to understand that these moments are about more than just coffee.
The Buun ceremony is a time for people to come together, laugh, support one another, and keep their culture alive.
When Nana gives Mimi the responsibility of helping serve the coffee, Mimi feels nervous at first. But with encouragement from her family, she learns that trying, making mistakes, and learning together are all part of growing up.
Mimi’s Day at Nana’s is a warm and joyful picture book that celebrates family, tradition, and the power of sharing stories across generations.
