A poetic and sensitive book that touches the memories of family lunches on Sundays. Here, the meetings take place at Yellow Grandma's house, who receives children and grandchildren with affection and care. She prepares them lunch, run card games, and offer delicacies at the end of the day; thus, back home, they would remind her with each bite.
The illustrations made with collage, mixing drawings and photos, transform the book into a kind of family album. It is the first book illustrated by Elisa Carareto, who was selected to represent Brazil at the 2019 Bratislava Biennial of Illustrations.
