"A early reader chapter book with black and white illustrations about new friends and new food. Moving to a new city means Alina has to make new friends. And nothing is worse than lunch at a new school. She tries to join other kids at their tables, but they've been friends since kindergarten, and there doesn't seem to be room for her. A visit from her loving grandmother means all kinds of delicious Indian food, made with her favorite spices. But when a mysterious bully leaves Alina a cruel note making fun of her lunch, things don't taste so good anymore."-- No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

Some things I find curiously unexplained and would be more annoyed about in a longer book:
Why do Kim and Liam (the 2 kids she connects with) get to leave school for lunch at home each day?
Why does Liam wear a sherwani on International day? Is it part of the message not to judge other people without learning more about them? -- that was a great message, by the way.
The illustrations are cute but kind of crude -- there are size differences between Alina and Nani that are very odd, and the detail is lacking in kids' faces.
Honestly, I'm still just really impressed about how much story there is in this short chapterbook. Lots to engage with and get into. ( )
