SLJ Reviews 2005 February (SH5B)

Gr 3-5 - Colorful photographs detail the lives of five youngsters from around the world: their homes, families, lifestyles, traditions, and typical foods. Each section also explores a special day in one child's life and the role of food in it: a wedding in South Africa, a fiesta in Mexico, a day out with Dad in Thailand, mushrooming in France, and a birthday in India. While children may not read this title from cover to cover, the color photos on each page and quotes are sure to pique their interest and encourage browsing. The recipe for a favorite dish of each youngster is appended; it will require adult assistance. The ingredients can be found at most supermarkets. A map and food glossary are useful aids. This enjoyable adjunct to country studies provides vivid snapshots into the lives of children outside the U.S.-Anne L.
