When he was a boy, adventurous, energetic Dada-ji had the power of a tiger. Aneel wants to find out if Dada-ji, grandpa, still had the power, but first he has to figure out how to whip up a batch of hot, hot roti. Overflowing with family, food, and a stack of fun, Hot, Hot Roti for Dada-ji is a warm story of a young Indian American boy’s adventures with his playful grandfather.
