I Hate Borsch!

Booktalk: All Ukrainians are supposed to love borsch–but what if you hate the red stuff? A young girl despises Eastern Europe’s most beloved soup, and not even the grandmothers of Kiev can persuade her to change her mind. But when she immigrates to the United States, American food leaves her feeling empty. One day she discovers borsch recipes in an old suitcase. Maybe that disgusting beet soup deserves another chance…
A recipe and author’s note provide further ways to interact with the story.
Snippet:
And suddenly, I am transported back home.
I am sailing a borsch river on a carrot boat.
The sun is setting like a large beet.
Dill is blooming everywhere.
