Congratulations on the publication of THE ONLY WAY TO MAKE BREAD by Cristina Quintero, illustrated by Sarah Gonzales, published today with Tundra Books!

THE ONLY WAY TO MAKE BREAD is a playful celebration of the various kinds of breads that people make around the world including Filipino pandesal buns, arepas, bao, campfire bannock and Jamaican hardo. Quintero, with the help of Gonzales’s engaging pencil crayon illustrations, walks readers through all the steps of making bread and the different ingredients used, along with some easy-to-follow recipes.

Praise for THE ONLY WAY TO MAKE BREAD:

“You’ll want to make bread after reading this warmhearted book . . .  the story ensures nothing about this process comes off as precious except the time spent together. This is . . . a unifying addition to conversations around community and food literacy.” —STARRED REVIEW, Booklist

“The Only Way to Make Bread proves itself to be a new family favourite. With a timeless message and adorable graphics, this book is certain to be a good read no matter how old you are.” —Young Adulting

“[A]s appealing as a warm, freshly baked loaf of bread.” —CM: Canadian Review of Materials

Cristina Quintero is a Colombian Canadian writer living well outside her preferred climate in Alberta, Canada with her husband, kids and two ridiculous dogs in an extremely red house.

She is a breast cancer graduate and obsessed with community building, cooking, and following her curiosity wherever it leads her. Which is not always wise but also never boring.

Cristina is represented by Amanda Orozco and Laura Cameron.

Congratulations Cristina!
