Shake-shake potatoes
(Portuguese edition)
Yara Kono has guests for dinner and a lot of ideas on how to prepare a very tasty meal. But, in order to have the meal ready on time, Yara will need a hand (or two!) from the readers…
Who wants to help preparing all the recipes?
This book is transformed into a kitchen counter and it will get readers washing, cutting, rolling, seasoning… and more.
Among pots and pans, some unexpected tasks will appear, like shaking the mysterious shake-shake potatoes…
This book is part of the Round Corners collection.

What they say
Forget your Nigellas e Avilezes and other such figures. Shake-shake potatoes has arrived with Yara Kono. If you want to add a pinch of humour and a critical eye to our rampant consumption of culinary culture, give this most recent book in Planeta Tangerina’s Round Corners collection to an adult friend.

A very jolly book in terms of its text and illustrations, guiding children through the preparation of a meal. And without further ado, yummmmm!
