"What's in the Rømmegrøt?! settles like a warm pot of its namesake into the heart of a reader."
Tanya O'Conner, Driftless Journal
Even Grandma makes mistakes learns young Ella as she and her Grandmother excitedly join forces to prepare a traditional family recipe. When things go awry, young Ella steps in to save the day – and the rømmegrøt!
A recipe for rømmegrøt is included and a coloring page invites budding rosemalers to try their hand at this traditional Norwegian folk art.
Ages 3 and up.
How Many Kransekaker?!
Readers spanning generations will cherish the story of Ella and her brother Aksel gathering in Grandma’s kitchen to prepare a kransekake— a “wreath cake.” “Seems simple enough,” Ella mutters to her brother as they mix up the dough. Soon they discover just how much patience and persistence are required!
A read-aloud book, How Many Kransekaker?! is organized into four chapters, for ages 6 and up.
