In this cozy, sweet story perfect for fans of Last Stop on Market Street as well as for the Thanksgiving season, a generous woman is rewarded by her community.

Product Description

Everyone in the neighborhood dreams of a taste of Omu’s delicious stew! One by one, they follow their noses toward the scrumptious scent. And one by one, Omu offers a portion of her meal. Soon the pot is empty. Has she been so generous that she has nothing left for herself?

An author’s note explains that “Omu” (pronounced AH-moo) means “queen” in the Igbo language of her parents, but growing up, she used it to mean “Grandma.”

Debut author-illustrator Oge Mora brings to life a heartwarming story of sharing and community in colourful cut-paper designs as luscious as Omu’s stew, with an extra serving of love.

This book was inspired by the strong female role models in Oge Mora’s life.
