【本書簡介】
《奶奶的農作物》以童趣筆觸描繪泰雅農耕智慧，展現語言傳承與土地感恩的生命故事。
【作者簡介】
這次首創泰雅語與英語對照繪本為跨界合作的成果，不僅有族語創作者的心血，也融入了六位旅美年輕人的投入對桃園少數族群關心，達成泰雅語向國際推廣的里程碑。編纂過程中參與英文翻譯、編輯、行銷的工程。透過不同族群、不同世代的攜手合作，匯聚而成這本兼具文化厚度與跨文化交流意義的繪本。並且細心的為初學泰雅語的人準備了字母發音別冊，讓繪本能真正傳達泰雅語的精髓，讓世界看見泰雅族。

桃園市長 張善政 序
桃園是全台原住民族人口第二多的城市，擁有豐富的文化底蘊與多元的族群故事。這本《奶奶的農作物》，呈現泰雅族豐富的傳統文化與緊密相依於土地的生活方式。如今推出英文版，為世界開啟一扇認識泰雅族的窗口。這本由市民自發完成的繪本，承載著雅族人珍惜土地、尊重自然的精神。我誠摯推薦，期盼它成為文化交流的橋樑，讓台灣原住民族的語言與文化被更多人認識，並在世界舞台上綻放光彩。

民意代表的天職當然是反映民意、監督政府，但民意代表也可以做事，或者「成事」一一協調各方，讓願意做事的人放手做事，而且圓滿成功。我很榮幸藉由原住民語繪本英文版的出版，促成桃園不同族群、市民，以及旅美子弟們之間的交流與合作，這確實是一件非常有價值的「心想事成」。
桃園市復興區區長 蘇佐璽 序
為桃園市唯一原住民地區的區長以及泰雅族的族人，非常榮幸地見證泰雅族繪本將以英語、泰雅語雙語呈現的方式在美國推廣。這是復興區首創，也是泰雅族首創。不同組織、單位、族群及旅美子弟們、作者與所有熱心參與的人士共同成就了這樁了不起的美事
。謝謝大家。

金蘭食品1936年創立於桃園，今年正邁向第90年，經營理念核心在於品質至上、永續發展、社會責任、研發創新。這次支持泰雅族繪本英文版的出版，言在保存與保護台灣少數民族原住民的語言，向全世界宣傳其語言之美。同時希望能以新的方法打造台灣與國際對話交流的平台。恭喜雙語繪本出版，我們彼此相挺互勉•永續發展。
【作者序】
畫出來的故事有一種全新的、創意的表達，作者將繪畫與部落文化相結合，使泰雅族語的教學內涵體現多元性、延展性、活動性。此繪本是由族人編寫的部落故事以及充滿童真與童趣的創作，更開心的是該繪本是由母親帶著女兒共同去創作與完成，實踐了「文化傳承」的關鍵意義。
能在如此豐富美好的山林中生活，是何其幸運！一切都要感謝上天的恩賜！如何帶著一刻感恩的心，守護這片土地，在享受這份美好的同時，也讓它延續下去，是我們所盼望，也是我們要共同努力的。
