"Every day, Ando Momofuku would retire to his lab--a little shed in his backyard. For years, he'd dreamed about making a new kind of ramen noodle soup that was quick, convenient, and tasty to feed the hungry people he'd seen in line for a bowl on the black market following World War II. "Peace follows from a full stomach," he believed. Day after day, Ando experimented. Night after night, he failed. But Ando kept experimenting. With persistence, creativity, and a little inspiration, Ando succeeded. This is the true story behind one of the world's most popular foods"-- Provided by publisher.

Good Picture Book Biography of Momofuku Ando submitted by ChallngOfTheStrs on July 22, 2020, 12:35am If you love ramen noodles, Japanese culture, or Momofuku Ando, you'll definitely enjoy this picture book. The story of how Ando invented his famous instant noodles is explained in simple language. The colorful artwork style is reminiscent of manga. This is a charming book all-around that I think both children and adults would admire.
