Little Turtle returns from afar, and Grandpa Turtle takes him on a special journey to revisit old haunts and greet old friends. They hop aboard trains, cable cars, subways, and boats--picnicking in Taoyuan, pottery-making in Yingge, tea-drinking in Maokong, night market browsing in Jiantan, treasure hunting in Jinguashih, all the way to Guishan Island... Grandpa Turtle shared one whimsical tale after another about the origins of these place names. This isn't just a trip; it's an adventure brimming with imagination and affection, steeped in the deep bond between grandfather and grandson! With his unique humor and creativity, Tom Niu breathes new life into these "place names with stories," helping children discover the land and feel its culture through engaging tales. It also reminds adults: the most moving journey is one you embark on with someone you love.
