“Every grandchild is sure nobody cooks like their Paati or Nani, and Tsering feels that way about Abi’s thukpa. Fair warning: by the last page, someone will want noodle soup for dinner.”
Abi's thukpa, a growing guest list and a sudden power cut.
Thukpa for All is a warm picture book about sharing a meal in Ladakh, told from the point of view of a boy who is blind.
Tsering can't wait to taste his grandmother Abi's noodle soup, "the best thukpa in town". He invites one friend after another, and soon dinner for two becomes a crowd. Then, as the cooking begins, the power goes out. How will Abi make her thukpa now?
Why children love it
- Sounds lead the way, from the "Flap, thwap" of prayer flags to Rigzin's ringing cycle bell.
- Tsering helps Abi, carefully squeezing each pea pod open at the seams.
- Bright pictures of Ladakh's mountains, prayer flags and neighbours in warm robes.
By Praba Ram and Sheela Preuitt · Illustrated by Shilpa Ranade · English
