What's in the Rommegrot?! is a sweet read-aloud illustrated book for children ages 3-9. Even Grandma makes mistakes, learns young Ella as she excitedly joins her Grandmother in preparing a traditional family recipe. When things go awry, young Ella saves the day-and the rommegrot! Watercolor illustrations bring to life the intergenerational love between the two characters and provide a fresh, vibrant palette for this winter-themed story. Nordic icons hint at their cultural heritage, with facial expressions and movement--including that of a recurring "extra"-taking center stage. A recipe for rommegrot is included and a coloring page invites budding rosemalers to try their hand at this traditional Norwegian folk art.
Carol Hagen is a retired social worker and third-generation Norwegian-American. This is her first children's book, inspired by a real happening! Kari Vick is an artist affiliated with Sivertson Gallery in northern Minnesota; this is her fifth illustrated children's book.
