图书详情

This warm and joyful picture book blends family tradition and creativity as Noor puts an awesome spin on her Dadijaan's yummy but ingredient-specific samosa recipe.
It’s Noor’s first time making her Dadijaan’s Special Samosa recipe. When she can’t get in touch with her Dadijaan because it’s nighttime in Pakistan, Noor must improvise to make her family’s recipe without all of the correct ingredients. Noor uses her creativity and problem-solving skills to create something new and exciting for her friends: flaky, super-crispy awe-samosas! Marzieh Abbas weaves Urdu words into her narrative of creativity, problem-solving, and love of food and cooking. Includes Dadijaan’s traditional potato and pea samosa recipe in backmatter.
Marzieh Abbas is an award-winning author who enjoys learning new skills, jumping rope, sipping chai, and observing nature. She is the author of several upcoming children’s books, a member of the Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators, and a graduate of the Children’s Book Academy. She lives in Pakistan.
Bhagya Madanasinghe is an illustrator and architect from Sri Lanka, a colorful little country in South Asia. She was drawn to various illustrative styles that guided her to the beautiful world of children's books. She enjoys making characters with strong emotions and actions to express the mood of her illustrations. She loves exploring new places to inspire her work. Her favorite thing to cook is pol sambol. Currently, she lives in Canada with her husband and lovely daughter, where she continues to excel in her artistic endeavors.
MULTIGENERATIONAL REPRESENTATION: Awe-samosas! centers familial love across generations, distance, and different time zones as Noor connects with her Dadijaan and Abu through cooking and even an on-page video call—practices that will ring true for many families and readers.
INFORMATIVE & INTERACTIVE BACKMATTER: Bonus material invites readers to try their hand at Dadijaan's Special Samosas with an easy-to-follow recipe. Also included is a glossary of Urdu terms used throughout the text.
EID GIFT: Samosas are a popular Eid al-Fitr food, "the festival of the breaking of the fast" marking the end of Ramadan. Awe-Samosas! makes the perfect gift book for the holiday!
ILLUSTRATIONS YOU CAN ALMOST SMELL: Madanasinghe's whimsical and energetic depictions of Noor cooking are an inviting love letter to food, taste, and scent that readers young and old will find enchanting.
EMERGING CHILDREN'S AUTHOR: Abbas began writing in May 2019 and has since published three picture books, with a fourth, A Dupatta Is..., slated for a 2023 release by Macmillan's Feiwel & Friends

Noor's plucky problem-solving and her encouraging cheerleaders...buoy the book. Illustrations that vary between close-ups and lively alternating perspectives evoke a cozy, bustling kitchen. A joyful story of one child's can-do spirit and tasty endings. -Kirkus Reviews
