Empower little ones to be proud of where they come from with this beautifully illustrated celebration of food, family, and the magic of memories...

Tariq loves food, from delicious dinners with his big family to scrumptious surprises in his lunchbox at school.

But when he's asked to bring in a special dish for his class picnic, Tariq begins to worry about how he'll choose just one tasty favourite!

As his family inspire him with stories of their favourite foods, Tariq soon realises that choosing the perfect dish is about more than just how it tastes.

What special story would Tariq like his food to tell?
