Plátanos Are Love

A delicious picture book about the ways plantains shape Latinx culture, community, and family, told through a young girl's experiences in the kitchen with her abuela. Abuela says, "pl?tanos are love."

I thought they were food.

But Abuela says they feed us in more ways than one. With every pop of the tostones, mash of the mang?, and sizzle of the maduros, a little girl learns that pl?tanos are her history, they are her culture, and--most importantly--they are love.
