Building a Happy Homeland Together (English-Chinese Edition): A Nepali Family’s Journey from Earthquake to Hope 中文对照:

Building a Happy Homeland Together (English-Chinese Edition): A Nepali Family’s Journey from Earthquake to Hope 中文对照:

After the 2015 earthquake, Janaki and her family lose their home in Kathmandu. Then a job at a Nepal-China agricultural park gives them a new start. A story of recovery, told by Nepali creators.
This is a picture book about a family in Nepal—not a policy book, and not a story about “faraway places” told by outsiders. In 2015, a massive earthquake hits Kathmandu. Janaki, a street vendor, and her two children survive, but their home and their livelihood are gone. Then something changes: because Janaki speaks Chinese, she and her husband find work at a Nepal-China agricultural demonstration park. She works in the kitchen; he learns to grow crops. Slowly, the family rebuilds. The story is told in Chinese and English, and it was written and illustrated by Nepali creators, so the streets, the faces, and the small details feel like they belong to a real place. If you want a children’s book about disaster, recovery, and the quiet help that makes a new start possible—rather than a textbook about international aid or a generic story with no real roots—this is it.
