A review by bookishrealm
Julie and the Mango Tree by Sadé Smith

4.0

Such a lovely picture book that reminds me of the times I spent with my grandmother in Jamaica. I, too, had this thing for mangos. Unfortunately, I think I ate so many that now I only eat a couple a year. As always, Smith exhibits fun and creative writing and Ramdial has beautiful, vibrant illustrations. I loved that the story encourages perseverance and creativity while also fostering a sense of community. Overall, a great read with some great mango recipes in the back. Great selection for any foodie!
