{"product_id":"grandma-cho-cho-and-me-morgan-christie-9781773067513","title":"Grandma, Cho Cho and Me","description":"Some families gather for big dinners, but in my house we feast at breakfast! As Grandma and I cook our favorite Jamaican dishes, I learn why that is.\nThe girl in this story and her grandmother are making breakfast for the whole family! Jamaican favourites like ackee and saltfish, fried dumplings and delicious cho cho are on the menu today. As they chop and stir, and the food simmers and sizzles, the girl has one big question for Grandma – why does their family eat such BIG breakfasts?\nThrough the process of cooking traditional foods, and through Grandma’s stories of life in Jamaica before their family emigrated to Canada, the girl learns more about the historical, economic and social reasons for their big breakfasts — and she explores her culture as someone not born in Jamaica, but still connected to the island.\nGrandma, Cho Cho and Me is inspired by the author’s childhood experiences born to Jamaican migrant parents, and beautifully illustrated by Paulica Santos. Memories of tropical landscapes, garden-fresh greens, and mouthwatering meals overflow in Paulica Santos’s lush, mixed-media illustrations.\nKey Text Features\nillustrations\nCorrelates to the Common Core State Standards in English Language Arts:\nCCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.K.1\nWith prompting and support, ask and answer questions about key details in a text.\nCCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.K.3\nWith prompting and support, identify characters, settings, and major events in a story.\nCCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.K.4\nAsk and answer questions about unknown words in a text.\nCCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.K.6\nWith prompting and support, name the author and illustrator of a story and define the role of each in telling the story.\nCCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.K.7\nWith prompting and support, describe the relationship between illustrations and the story in which they appear (e.g., what moment in a story an illustration depicts).\nCCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.1.3\nDescribe characters, settings, and major events in a story, using key details.\nCCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.1.4\nIdentify words and phrases in stories or poems that suggest feelings or appeal to the senses.\nCCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.1.7\nUse illustrations and details in a story to describe its characters, setting, or events.","brand":"Groundwood Books Ltd ,Canada","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51493266751776,"sku":"9781773067513","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/2812\/7264\/files\/9781773067513_2457008.jpg?v=1776433042","url":"https:\/\/bookcorner.com\/products\/grandma-cho-cho-and-me-morgan-christie-9781773067513","provider":"The Book Corner","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
