The Princess of Borscht by Leda Schubert

Loved the cultural and family connections, but overall the story is a little hard to believe and the main character is gullible.

A cute story about one of my favorite foods.

I picked this up because I, too, am a Princess of Borscht. Ruthie is an engaging heroine who thinks she may have bitten off more than she could chew after she promises Grandma that she will make borscht and bring it to the hospital (where Grandma may starve to death on hospital food). Cue a few too many helpful neighbors and some delightful illustrations, and you have a recipe for an interesting afternoon. Plus a real recipe for borscht on the back cover.
