The slow-cooked lentil stew from South Asia takes many ingredients and a lot of patience, and Bilal wants to introduce his friends (who’ve never tried it) to it. As the daal simmers, more children join in, and Bilal wonders: will his friends like it as much as he does? This charming picture book uses food as a bridge to celebrate community, patience, family traditions, and sharing.
