Review:

Are you a foodie? Do you think you know all things food, where it comes from, how it’s grown and what food items taste best paired? This guide will awaken your senses and show you the world of food as you’ve never seen it before! 

This handy guide, for the curious food lover in you, has maps, recipes, fast facts, appetizing attractions, and games. This guide shares all things spices and where they come from. The coconut is considered a versatile fruit especially since it is used in spicy soups all the way to sweet desserts. The section on cereals has favorite foods from around Africa. Everyone loves cheese and in the section readers will see various kinds of cheese in foods from the United States, Brazil, India, New Zealand, and Ethiopia. There is a section for foods celebrated at various festivals. Readers will learn all about the farmlands across the globe that grow the delicious foods we love. 

Parents and teachers will have so much fun sharing this guide with readers. The food topics are endless, learning about cultures, how food is grown, and where it can all be found is endless. There are plenty of travel tips and the back pages have a glossary and resources of interest.
