Watercress by Andrea Wang is a poignant and autobiographical picture book that beautifully captures the intersection of family, heritage, and foraging. As the family drives through Ohio in an old Pontiac, they suddenly stop when they spot watercress growing wild in a ditch by the side of the road.
The entire family wades into the muck, collecting as much of the muddy, snail-covered watercress as they can. Initially embarrassed, the young girl wonders why her family can’t simply get food from the grocery store. However, when her mother shares a story of their family’s time in China, the girl begins to appreciate the fresh food they forage together.
