About This Book

Here’s a bilingual picture book that transforms the simple act of making rice pudding into a poetic cooking adventure. A young cook guides readers through each step in both Spanish and English, describing the ingredients with such imaginative language that ordinary rice becomes “fishies and white birds” and milk becomes a “waterfall.” The warm, inviting illustrations by Fernando Vilela celebrate the joy of cooking and sharing food as a family.
