"Wait, kiddo, wait! Coming right up--the world on your plate."
With maki sushi, savory shakshuka and silky fondue, nothing but a big community feast will do! This delightful rhyming picture book sweeps through the homes of a diverse neighborhood as kids, families and neighbors prepare a buffet of delicious dishes. Finally they come together in a community block party to share their favorite foods!
Praise for Rina Singh:
★"A very wise book, speaking volumes...Share this at story hours, or hand it to the child struggling to read; this communicates essential truths without a word. Marvelous."--School Library Journal, starred review for Once, a Bird
★"This sweet, understated story is wordless--a perfect way to tell it, as it requires youngsters to relate to the illustrations in a unique, profoundly personal way...Refreshing, beautiful, moving, and meaningful."--Kirkus Reviews, starred review for Once, a Bird
★"With cinematic fluidity, Dion's marvellous watercolor, gouache, and digital illustrations evocatively convey Singh's thoughtful wordless narrative...This multilayered wordless picture book has much to say about nature, renewal, and resiliency."--Booklist, starred review for Once, a Bird
★ "[A] tender tribute to the Hindu holiday of Holi...A joyful hybrid of concept book, holiday title, and portrait of familial love."--Publishers Weekly, starred review for Holi Colors
★ "Singh celebrates Holi, the Hindu festival of colors and love, and highlights six colors in this vibrant, playful board book...The sheer joy of the event comes through on nearly every page...Communicating the universal concept of color within the specific celebration of Holi, this gem deserves a place in every child's book bag."--Kirkus Reviews, starred review for Holi Colors

When she isn't reading old cookbooks and listening to glam rock, Flo can probably be found enjoying butter noodles with her daughter and chef husband in their cozy Toronto home.
