"Noor's plucky problem-solving and her encouraging cheerleaders...buoy the book. Illustrations that vary between close-ups and lively alternating perspectives evoke a cozy, bustling kitchen. A joyful story of one child's can-do spirit and tasty endings." — Kirkus Reviews(Star) "With references to Ramadan, the use of the Muslim greeting salam-alaykum, and Urdu words sprinkled throughout, this book crosses cultural divides and invites everyone into the kitchen, with lessons about treasuring family heritage and sharing one’s culture with others...An awesome book about samosas and so much more: a great addition to any collection." — School Library Journal (starred review)
