Food Around The World (Gill Budgell)

Wow! "Food Around the World" is a really fun way to learn about different countries. It's not just about what people eat, but why they eat it and how important food is to their culture. I loved seeing all the colorful pictures of yummy dishes – some I already knew (like pizza!), and others were totally new to me!

The book explains things in a way that’s easy to understand, even for someone like me who doesn't always love social studies. It talks about how food gets from farms to our plates, which is cool, and it also shows you how different seasons can change what we eat. I learned that people eat differently depending on where they live and what their family likes!

My favorite part was probably the recipes. They look super easy to make with a little help from my mom or dad. We're going to try making some of them this weekend!

It’s also good to know the book helps you think about being healthy and not wasting food, which is important. Plus, it's part of a whole series – I want to read "Celebrations Around the World" next! If you like food and learning about new places, this book is a great value - you’ll definitely get your money’s worth in fun facts and tasty ideas!

Who would love this book? Kids aged 7-9 who enjoy cooking, geography, or just trying new things. It's perfect for reading together as a family too!
