Nice, a bao recipe at the back (only one, though? No tamales, or pierogi, or…?). Cute ending.
I cannot emphasize how bad the formatting is. Maybe due to text resizing? The text looks weird, and is separated at really weird places, even in the recipe.

“…I trudge up to the fourth floor… Kiki watches.”
LOL. Smart puppy - these two are going to pass out the minute they sit down after all those flights of stairs.

Cavoli! = Cabbages!

Oops. Babcia, not babcha.

Also, Babcia’s comment of “Do Licha” is apparently Polish for “Hell”.
I absolutely LOL’d at that - multicultural swearing alongside family names in this picture book!

I thought maybe it was Lili’s babcha she was sent to see, from her other parents side. But apparently all the building residents are called grandma - a good way to introduce language, i guess.

Upright, the bao recipe is almost too small to read. It’s better if you turn the tablet on its side - but flipping back to prior pages, it messes up the formatting there quite badly.

First real page, and I can tell some of the formatting will be interesting. It’s like the page wasn’t adjusted properly, with the bottom third of the page left blank and the image left quite small.
