Sundays aren’t just Sundays—they’re domingo, the best day of the week! In this heartwarming picture book, readers step into the magical world of a first-generation Latinx American girl as she spends Sunday evenings at her Abuelita’s house.

Through delicious Ecuadorian cooking, joyful dancing, endless hugs, and laughter-filled games with cousins, aunts, and uncles, the story captures the many ways love is shared in family traditions. As Alejandra reflects on the happy memories made in this special home, she finds the courage to speak Spanish with her Abuelita, deepening their bond in a beautiful and brave way. Written by Alexandra Katona, and inspired by her own life, Dinner on Domingos celebrates family, culture, and the small but powerful acts of connection that shape who we are.

Brought to life with vibrant illustrations by Claudia Navarro, this heartfelt tale immerses readers in rich sights, smells, and sounds that will feel familiar to some and eye-opening to others. Perfect for families who treasure their cultural roots, and for anyone who believes in the magic of food, family, and love.

Dinner on Domingos is more than a story—it’s a celebration of identity, tradition, and the joy of togetherness.
