Warning: Do not attempt to read this
delicious and cozy story on an empty tummy!
This story of Cora and her
Filipino-American family is a perfect mix of a day-in-the-life of a
big happy family and how-to make pancit, a tasty Filipino dish of
rice noodles, veggies, and chicken. Cora has been waiting for the
day when she will be allowed to wear her grandfather's red apron and
help prepare a favorite family meal. Find out how she fares in making
the dish, and with the recipe included, you can read the story and
eat it, too!
Having grown up in a Filipino-Italian
family, the author Dorina K. Lazo Gilmore has drawn from memories of
her childhood to create Cora and her family. Cora Cooks Pancit was
APALA's 2009-2010 Picture Book Winner.
