Words That Taste Like Home is a heartwarming picture book about how language can connect us to our culture and hold on to the people we love.
★ 2025 CBCA Notable Picture Book of the Year ★
Rohan loves spending time with his grandmother, making mango pickle and sharing stories. But when he moves to a different country and learns a new language, words from his first language start slipping away until one day there are none left.
How will Rohan find the words to tell his grandmother a story again?
A much-anticipated follow-up to 2022's CBCA award-winning The Boy Who Tried to Shrink His Name and 2024's NSW Premier's Literary award-winning Stay for Dinner, this story encourages young bilingual readers to take pride in their first language and retain strong ties to their family and culture.★ 2025 CBCA Notable Picture Book of the Year ★
