Faruq wants to be a chef but his family wants him to be a doctor. Can he change their minds?

An inspirational story that breaks down stereotypes.

The font is easy to read, it changes in style and size. There are dialogues and some that are written in Guyanese.

The pictures are bright and colourful with relatable characters. Faruq is ambitious and kind.

At the back of the book, there is an added bonus of a Guyanese Lime Cookies recipe.

My son absolutely loved listening to this book. He would love for us to make the lime cookies.

I think it is an ideal story book to read to young children and to read aloud because there are interactive parts.

I think it is a great story to share about Guyanese culture, to learn about Guyanese recipes and like the Lime cookie recipe at the back of the book. The Guyanese dialogue's gives authenticity. I like reading about different cultures.
