Fry bread is food. It is warm and delicious, piled high on a plate. Fry bread is time. It brings families together for meals and new memories. Fry bread is nation. It is shared by many, from coast to coast and beyond. Fry bread is us. It is a celebration of old and new, traditional and modern, similarity and difference. Told in lively and powerful verse by debut author Kevin Noble Maillard, Fry Bread is an evocative depiction of a modern Native American family.

When a young boy’s grandmother walks on, he wonders where she’s gone. Did she go to the market to buy ripe melons? Or maybe she’s in the garden, watering her herbs? It feels like she’s somewhere far away, so the boy finds new ways to share stories about his day, hoping she can hear him. Even her house feels like it’s waiting for her return. Then as the boy approaches the kitchen, the scent and memories of her cooking assure him that no matter where she is, her love will always be close by.
