Creech, S. (2003). Granny Torrelli Makes Soup. NY: Harper Collins
A twelve year Rosie and her best friend Bailey are not always on the best of terms. Rosie's grandmother, Granny Torrelli, knows exactly when something is not right with Rosie. Granny Torrelli knows how to correct things by giving Rosie advice through the experiences that she has lived through. Rosie, Bailey and Granny Torrelli make soup together for a pasta party and that is when they realize that love and friendship are more than important in life than being angry with one another.
I enjoyed this!! There is some humor throughout the book, especially if you can imagine the story playing out in movie or cartoon. I love how Granny Torrelli, gives Rosie advice without really giving her advice by telling her stories similar to what Rosie is going through.
