Elissa & Family...The Most Important Thing (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798986301662)

When Elissa forgets to have dinner, her Grandmother and Grandfather know it's time to step in. They recognize that Elissa is diligently working towards her dream of becoming an engineer, but they also understand the importance of balance in life. They ask Elissa to take a break from studying for just one day to help them with something very special.

Curious, Elissa heads downstairs and discovers they're preparing a grand feast for the extended family, emphasizing that this connection and nourishment are the "most important things."

Elissa, the protagonist from previous books, returns in this installment to delve deeper into the significance of food, especially when it's tied to family. While hard work and studying are essential, maintaining health and being active are equally important. She also grasps that nutritious food can aid her studies by nourishing both her mind and body.

Be on the lookout for familiar motifs (like the red suitcase and the delicious olives) from past Elissa tales as they make appearances throughout this story. As with previous books in the series, this narrative promises to be a cherished addition, perfect for school reading, bedtime tales, or a delightful rainy-day escape.
