Two 5-Star Reviews for my new book:
What's for Dinner?
on November 28, 2015
“What’s
For Dinner” written by Penelope Anne Cole and illustrated by Samantha
S. Bell, is a lovely story of two girls from different lands, who
become friends through their church and share their foods and family
love. Amaeka of Nigerian decent has invited Katy to dinner. Katy is
worried about what will be served. The girls are experiencing life in
ways they are not accustomed to, but graciously take part in the
experience. I think children will relate to this book as diversity is
ever growing in our country and countries around the world today. Amaeka
and Katy are perfect examples of acceptance and friendship. This would
be a book for the classroom or a child’s library. Either way, a
pleasant read.

Culturally
specific books are important because research has shown that children
fair well when they can identify with people who are similar to
themselves. I applaud award winning children’s author, Penelope Anne
Cole for writing her newest book, “What’s for Dinner.” Children all over
the world will be inspired with her book because it celebrates
diversity.
