A bright, beautiful, and updated re-release of a Tomie dePaola classic!

Tony likes to cook. Tiny likes to read. And both twins like to eat . . . POPCORN! So while Tiny cooks it, Tony reads about it: what it is, how it's stored, how it's cooked, how different people make it, how much popcorn Americans eat, popcorn stories and legends, and popcorn recipes! Tomie dePaola, who eats a lot of popcorn, shares what he knows about it with humor and imagination.

Industry Reviews

"First published in 1978, this 40th anniversary edition updates the depictions of Indigenous people and expands upon the presentation of historical facts . . . cleaner and brighter, with more saturated colors and modern type . . . This version does a good job of including more Native Nation-specific facts about popcorn and its preparation . . . Readers familiar with this book will delight in a fresher-looking version"--Kirkus Reviews
