About the Book:
Join a mother and her adorable children for their weekly baking ritual in Pooja Makhijani’s touching story, with warm, tender art by Lavanya Naidu. Bread Is Love celebrates the act of baking and eating bread, and sharing it with family.
Bread is many things.
Bread is simple. The dough can be made with just flour, salt, starter, and water.
Bread is science. With the right ingredients, in the right amounts, the dough grows and changes.
Bread can be unpredictable. Sometimes it rises, like a soft pillow. Sometimes it’s flat and crunchy.
But bread is always delicious, especially when it is made with love.
