Lessons:
This fun book takes the reader through a cultural dish that plays a huge part in the little girl's life. Through the delicious samosa, she bonds with her dad during a basketball game, she celebrates with her extended family and cooks them with her parents. There are unfamiliar words used in this book that I had to google, (aloo, keema, chaat) and makes me wish there was a glossary. The text is written in rhyme and is mostly consistent. There is mention of 'birthdays' in this book, I would have preferred to be left out. Other than that, it definitely is a fun book that kids can relate to, specifically those that are familiar with samosas.
