| Summary |
Every true Texan knows that the best chili--in fact, the only real chili--can be found only in the Lone Star State. A Bowl of Red makes the taste buds tingle and the heart sing. It is a bowl of tradition, passed down through families and generations, that American humorist Will Rogers once called a "bowl of blessedness." This colorful picture book for young readers traces the origins and development of the official state dish of Texas. Did you know that a Texas Ranger was the first person to can chili and sell it outside the state? Can you believe that people in Ohio serve their chili mixed with chocolate! With such fun facts throughout and an authentic Texas chili recipe from Lady Bird Johnson's White House days, children and adults will turn the pages and find themselves hankering for a bite. Whether you like yours spooned over a baked potato, served with corn chips, or eaten straight from a bowl, it's chili time, y'all! |
