Dumpling Day - Picture Book


 Publication date: September 17, 2021

Words by: Meera Siriam

Art by: Inés de Antuñano

Recipes by: Laurel Paula Jackson

My Thoughts:

In one story about dumpling potluck, we see diverse families not only expanding our definition of dumpling, but giving readers a glimpse into family kitchens with The short text is a counting dumpling book that includes little taste hits followed by actual recipes and real photos. 

Picture Books in Secondary Ideas:

Food as culture as writing inspiration 

Expanding a definition of one thing  like dumplings = shish-barak with baba, bourekas with Saba, gyoza with oji-san 

Creating a recipe book with family stories and pictures

Anything that gets culture, food and writing with a link to community
