This book is all around the kitchen, the central room in the house which brings family together and creates lasting memories. The tired mother has had enough with all the cooking and cleaning. She is dreaming about closing the kitchen at least for a short period of time. But every time when it looks like just about to finally really happen, somebody shows up at the kitchen last minute out of nowhere, ignores the closed kitchen sign, takes food and leaves a mess behind. Can the kitchen ever be closed? Should it be a 24/7 kitchen? Parents and children are sure to recognize themselves in this fun-to-read story and laugh. A real joy for all ages.
