From author Sandhya Parappukkaran and illustrator Michelle Pereira—the award-winning creators of The Boy Who Tried to Shrink His Name—comes Words That Taste Like Home, a tender and endearing picture book about language, connection, and enduring love.
Rohan loves spending time with Muthassi—his grandmother. They share stories as they eat sour pickles and tell jokes while they walk through the mango trees. When Rohan’s parents announce that they’ll be moving to a different country, Rohan promises to call Muthassi every day.
Their new country is full of new experiences: a new school, a new puppy, and even a new language. Rohan can’t wait to tell Muthassi all about his adventures, but when he picks up the phone, he can’t find the right words.
Slowly, Rohan begins to worry that his new language is chasing away his first one, and with it, his connection to Muthassi. When his parents tell him that they’ll be spending the summer in their home country, Rohan is nervous. What if he can’t talk to Muthassi anymore?
Words That Taste Like Home is a heartwarming picture book about how language can connect us to our culture and help us hold on to the people we love.
