Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
A delicious picture book about the ways plantains shape Latinx culture, community, and family, told through a young girl's experiences in the kitchen with her abuela.
Abuela says, "plátanos are love."
I thought they were food.
But Abuela says they feed us in more ways than one.
With every pop of the tostones, mash of the mangú, and sizzle of the maduros, a little girl learns that plátanos are her history, they are her culture, and--most importantly--they are love.
Includes glossary and recipes.
"A young girl learns the cultural significance of plantains while cooking alongside her abuela"-- Provided by publisher.
