“A repeating refrain (“If you ever have a mulberry tree...”) gives the text a lilting, poetic quality, while loose and colorful illustrations evoke a warm, rural setting…A warm tale of grief, resilience, trees, and, of course, jam.” –Kirkus
Michelle Sumovich and Sarah Jacoby deliver an outlandish and utterly hilarious tale about a tired mother who unknowingly slurps her daughter up during a spaghetti dinner. A hysterical picture book full of old-world chaos, reminiscent of Tomi Ungerer, William Steig, and Strega Nona.
