Jillian Tamaki, "Our Little Kitchen"
Amazing things happen when a community comes together with creativity, energy, and food! Drawn from author/illustrator Jillian Tamaki's volunteer experiences at a small community kitchen in Brooklyn, Our Little Kitchen captures the chaotic but caring work of neighbors taking care of each other with meals and friendship. Tamaki combines the action-filled illustrations of a graphic novel with a rhyming narrative for an explosion of colors, words, tastes, and smells. "Three bags of apples some of them bruised…cut off the brown bits, they're still good to use!". Thumb to the back endpapers to see how these second-hand apples are turned into a dessert to warm the bellies of those you love. Purchase Book Here: https://www.politics-prose.com/book/9...
