My 3rd grader is using this book all year long after she finishes each of her units on eight different countries. This book is fantastic, and appropriate for anyone - young and old. Older students can use the book on their own, younger students can use it with help from an older sibling or mom and dad, and families can simply use the book to expand their palates and try out many different flavors from around the world.The recipes are simple, yet complete, and nothing so far seems to be too difficult to prepare. My daughter just finished a unit on Canada, and chose to make the Blueberry Corn Fritters served with maple syrup and Apple Cake. She can't wait to start her unit on India this week.We were lucky to find this at our local library, but we might end up purchasing it soon so we have it for years to come. What an exciting book - a hidden treasure!
