Description

Granny teaches her grandson to cook the family meal in this loving celebration of food, traditions, and gathering together at the table. On Sundays, everyone gathers at Granny's for Soul Food. But today, the narrator follows Granny instead of going to the backyard or the great room, as he is now old enough to learn how to cook. Together, they grate cheese, clean greens, and prepare meat for the grill. After they finish cooking, the grandson makes his own contribution, sweetening the gathering and the many more to come. The story, evocatively written and vividly illustrated, is a warm celebration of tradition and coming together at a table filled with love and delicious food.
