Product Description:
Tour a world of cuisine and traditions that have formed over many years. You will learn what makes a fruit a fruit, how different nuts grow, and how grains are plant seeds. The illustrations and text have a charming quality. You can open to any page and learn something valuable. This would be a good addition to a cooking lesson or home economics-type course. I like how you see similar items grouped together so you can see what is different about them. There is a huge variety of topics covered! ~Sara
