Celebrate diversity and community through a vibrant potluck of rice meals in this mouthwatering food-around-the-world book.
The sun is shining and pots are boiling. There is a rice feast today at 42 Pudding Street!
Throughout the apartment building, families embrace their cultures and histories as they prepare rice dishes that originate from around the world. Whether it be a pot of jambalaya or tahdig, congee or arancini, they prove that rice isn't just food! As they gather for their community potluck, they find that rice celebrates differences and diversity--and shows how something so simple can bring so many people together.
Parents and teachers looking for children's books about food will need to add this picture book to their collections. Between the heartening story and the supplemental pages that include a history of rice, featured dishes, and a simple (but delicious) recipe, readers of all ages will learn something new from The Rice Feast.
