Book Overview

This delicious sweet picture book celebrates the joys (and rewards) of sharing. . . and delectable Indian desserts!

Ria wants to be the best chai party host to impress her grandparents, who are visiting all the way from India. She even shares her precious mithai box of her favorite sweet, motichoor ladoo, with the whole family. After all, her grandparents always taught her "Atithi devo bhava, like God we welcome our guests with warmth and respect."

Everyone loves the motichoor ladoo. And Ria is happy that everyone else is happy. But as the ladoo disappears, she worries that there will be none left for her. What good is being the best host if Ria doesn't get to have fun too?

But her grandmother has a surprise. . .one last motichoor ladoo!

Sharing has never been so sweet! The Mithai Box Is Not Empty celebrates the joys of generosity, but reminds us not to forget our own happiness. An author's note on mithais and a matching mithai game are included in the back of the book.
