"Stay for Dinner" is a captivating tale that delves into the realm of culture and the profound connections forged through the shared experience of food, crafted by the talented minds behind "The Boy Who Tried to Shrink His Name," the recipient of the prestigious 2022 Children's Book Council of Australia's Award for New Illustrator.

Reshma cherishes the delightful moments she spends with her family during dinner. Unlike many families who opt for finger foods or casual dining, Reshma's family embraces a unique and interactive approach to eating. They relish the tactile sensation of using their hands to savor each bite, engaging in a hands-on, squishy culinary experience.

However, when Reshma receives invitations to dine at her friends' homes, she discovers that their dining habits differ vastly. Some friends delicately use their cutlery, while others skillfully manipulate their chopsticks with a rhythmic click-clack. As Reshma prepares to introduce her family's unconventional eating style to her friends, she wonders how they will react to this unconventional practice.

"Stay for Dinner" is a captivating story that appeals to children aged 3 and above. It explores the diverse ways in which people embrace food, showcasing the beauty of cultural diversity and the power of shared experiences. Through its charming narrative and vibrant illustrations, this book encourages children to appreciate the richness of different traditions and to embrace the joy of connecting through the simple act of eating.
