One family dinner, a growing list of pasta requests

A doorbell and a parade of relatives turn pasta night into a kitchen full of competing preferences. Each guest arrives with a favorite pasta dish, and the rhyming text links the requests to a multigenerational family gathering. The accumulating menu gives the dinner its comic source of trouble, while the central question—how much pasta is too much?—frames the household bustle. Set around a family meal, the picture book brings together food, extended-family relationships, and the challenge of accommodating picky eaters.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8 who enjoy rhyming picture books
  • Families looking for a story about a lively multigenerational dinner
  • Young readers interested in pasta and food-centered stories

Book overview

A New York Public Library Book for Kids 2024
A Bank Street Book of the Year

A family dinner gets out of hand as guest after guest arrives with a different pasta request in this "delectable" (Kirkus Reviews) and rambunctious rhyming picture book. How much pasta is too much pasta?

Ring-a-ding, the doorbell rings, and oh! What did my Nonna bring?

Nonna Ana from Catania only likes to eat lasagna. But Nonno Titi from Tahiti only eats his spaghettini! Zio Tony wants ravioli, Zia Trini wants rotini, the cugini want tortellini... Family dinners can be tricky when the guests are oh-so-picky! As the kitchen gets more and more chaotic, can family pasta night go off without a hitch?
