Tea Cakes for Tosh

(3) K-3 Illustrated by E. B. Lewis. Young Tosh loves it when his grandmother Honey bakes tea cakes and tells stories of his "long ago" ancestor Grandma Ida, a slave who baked tea cakes, sneaking some out for the slave children. Then Honey begins forgetting things; to help her remember, Tosh retells her Grandma Ida stories. Realistic watercolors reinforce the warm, loving relationship between the two. A recipe is included.
