Featured Reviews

As a children's librarian, i'm always on the look out for interesting J nonfiction books, and this one is awesome. This bright, colorful book is a mix of history, culture, and cooking, taking readers around the world and highlighting the food of different nations. Each entry starts off with a short history lesson, typically providing context as to the current state of the area's culinary traits. At the end of each section, there's a recipe from one of the featured countries. This book is a great introduction to culinary differences around the world, as well as how other factors (cultural and historical events, etc) can impact culinary evolution. The inclusion of recipes, mostly of easier items to create, helps readers connect to what their reading, and gives them the chance to try things out for themselves. This is a quick read, engaging for young readers, and provides enough information to be educational without overwhelming its target audience.
