Kallaloo!: A Caribbean Tale

by David Gershator, Phillis Gershator · 2005

+ Want to read

Can a shell really make soup? Yes, if Granny stirs the pot and with a little help from the folks in Market Square. Regional dialect, bright illustrations, and a recipe for Kallaloo, a seafood gumbo that is a West Indian favorite, bring a distinctly Caribbean flavor to this adaptation of the traditional tale, Stone Soup.
