I loved this book! If only it had been around when my daughter Melissa was little, maybe I would have made something for dinner other than reservations! --Joan Rivers Iwai's writing debut beautifully depicts the loving relationship between a mother and daughter... Ordinariness made extraordinary. --Kirkus Reviews, starred review A perfect meal and a perfect book. --School Library Journal Idyllic and cozy with colorful, textured illustrations, the book also offers a perfect recipe for tiny hands. --Associated Press The brightly colored illustrations--combining acrylics, fabric and paper collage, and digital elements--offer plenty of familiar elements for young children to identify and new ones to explore, such as six kinds of pasta pictured on one page. Satisfying for reading aloud. --Booklist
