*A March/April 2023 Indie Next Pick**A Junior Library Guild Selection*"A fun and lively book about putting your own spin on traditional ramen!""Get ready for ramen, handmade to order and delightful to devour! . . . Tanumihardja’s simple yet evocative prose draws readers into the drama and tension of the ramen making and brings to life Hiro’s loving, understanding family. . . . A celebration of the complexity and care that go into making this Japanese staple."“A story that is as warm, rich and hearty as ramen itself!”"A hearty serving of Japanese cuisine, resilience, and family fun.""Tanumihardja’s picture book debut encouragingly, practically shows how much hard work goes into the food’s preparation, leaving room for Hiro to try, try again, and at last put a personal spin on the traditional dish. Pate’s sumi ink, pencil, and digital illustrations reproduce packaged ramen’s colorful, cartoony designs, establishing a cheerfully chaotic tone across action-oriented panels."
