A Recipe for Love and Laughter
This book by author Sharon Creech makes me laugh and cry! My copy is frayed and I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve read it. The book is broken into two parts where twelve-year-old Rosie helps her Granny make soup and pasta. But Granny is a tricky old soul because she sprinkles in wisdom as she cooks and Rosie is nourished by more than her food.
Don’t be fooled! This book may look short at only 160 pages with chapters that sometimes run less than one page, but its heart and soul are as grand and wide as a hug from Granny Torelli.
