Hot, Hot Roti for Dada-ji

32 pp. | Lee | April, 2011 | Trade ISBN 978-1-60060-443-0 $17.95
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Ken Min. Aneel's Dada-ji (paternal grandfather) tells an exaggerated story of his youth and how he gained "the power of the tiger" by eating the best roti in town. Excited by the tale, Aneel experiments in the kitchen to re-create the Indian flatbread and likewise gain superhuman strength. Warm acrylic and colored-pencil drawings zestfully capture the tale within a tale. A Hindi glossary is appended.
