Bookroo's summary

When the doorbell rings, a family dinner turns into a pasta pandemonium. Nonna Ana insists on lasagna, while Nonno Titi craves spaghettini. Zio Tony demands ravioli, and Zia Trini prefers rotini. As more relatives arrive with their own pasta preferences, the kitchen descends into chaos. Can this picky family find harmony amidst the culinary confusion, or will pasta night end in disaster? Discover the deliciously rhyming tale of a dinner gone awry, where every noodle has its place, but not everyone gets their way.

From the publisher

A family dinner gets out of hand as guest after guest arrives with a different pasta request in this “delectable” (Kirkus Reviews) and rambunctious rhyming picture book. How much pasta is too much pasta? Ring-a-ding, the doorbell rings, and oh! What did my Nonna bring? Nonna Ana from Catania only likes to eat lasagna. But Nonno Titi from Tahiti only eats his spaghettini! Zio Tony wants ravioli, Zia Trini wants rotini, the cugini want tortellini… Family dinners can be tricky when the guests are oh-so-picky! As the kitchen gets more and more chaotic, can family pasta night go off without a hitch?
