Book Overview

A moving portrait of the absence lost loved ones leave in our lives--and the food traditions that keep their memories from fading.

Lila and her Abuelo Carlos miss Abuela Ana. Without the sound of her laughter, the rhythm of her dancing, or the aromas of her cooking, home just isn't the same. So Lila devises a plan to hold onto every detail she can remember. She and Abuelo will make Abuela's signature dish--sancocho!

Off to the market they go, guided by a faded recipe that takes them through the stalls, where each ingredient sparks a warm memory. As Lila and her abuelo learn to lean on each other, Abuela's words help them recreate a dish that tastes like love.
