Awe-Samosas!
Reading Level: 2nd − 3rd Grade

This warm and joyful picture book blends family tradition and creativity as Noor puts an awesome spin on her Dadijaan's yummy but ingredient-specific samosa recipe.

It’s Noor’s first time making her Dadijaan’s Special Samosa recipe. When she can’t get in touch with her Dadijaan because it’s nighttime in Pakistan, Noor must improvise to make her family’s recipe without all of the correct ingredients. Noor uses her creativity and problem-solving skills to create something new and exciting for her friends: flaky, super-crispy awe-samosas! Marzieh Abbas weaves Urdu words into her narrative of creativity, problem-solving, and love of food and cooking.

Includes Dadijaan’s traditional potato and pea samosa recipe in backmatter.
