A sweet and magical new middle-grade graphic novel about a boba café, an earthquake-causing monster, and an unforgettable summer In the fog laden hills of San Francisco sits a sleepy independent boba café. Run by Jing Li and guarded by her kitty Bao, it comfortably fades into the background. But inside the boba café, there’s a secret. Jing is the keeper of the monster of San Francisco. Each day she prepares one giant boba for nine hours to feed it.When Jing’s granddaughter, Aria, comes to stay with her for the summer she makes it her mission to turn the café around. Aria is quickly aided by Bao, who gives birth to eight perfect kittens. Aria spreads the news of the boba cat café on social media and overnight it is overrun with excited customers. Each day Nainai Li (Grandma Li) finds reasons to close the café but the demand only increases. When she opens, the hill monster is left hungry and small earthquakes begin to plague the city. When Aria secretly follows her Nainai to the hill monster cave she isn’t sure what awaits. Will Aria be able to reason with the monster or become its new favorite meal? Or will she disturb its underground existence and cause the Big One?
Aria and Nainai are back in an original graphic novel about a mysterious ancient monster and the quest to set it free
Aria thought her life would go back to normal when she left her nainai’s boba shop—and the monster living below it—behind in San Francisco. But while Aria and Nainai may have stopped the Big One, the aftershocks from her summer adventure are far from over. Each night, the monster visits Aria’s dreams, calling her back to the caves below the city. Stranger still, Aria’s discovered a newfound ability to manipulate water . . . but her powers aren’t quite under her control. So Aria convinces her parents she needs another visit with Nainai, and she packs her bags and heads back to San Francisco.
Beneath the boba shop, Aria and Nainai learn the monster’s secret—he needs their help to return home. Can Aria learn how to harness her new powers (and a whole lot of boba) to bring the monster back to the sea, or will it be trapped under the city forever?
