I really like this book because it is informational and well organized. The language is very basic and not very detailed, so this book is definitely meant to engage a younger elementary school audience. The background of each page is a different color of the rainbow. The illustrations are pictures of real food and people. There are many interesting text features in this story that keep the story engaging and organized and easy for young children to understand. There is an index, a glossary with cooking terminology, a section to outline further reading and recipes for children, and a page of fun facts about cultural foods. This book encourages students to try eating and learning about different foods. For example, one page states, “Talk to your friends. Ask them about foods they like to eat. Your friends may like foods you haven’t tried before”. Reading this book can help children become more accepting and less judgmental of other students’ lunches at school. The book also lists common foods and ways to make them more culturally diverse. The book teaches children that foods such as chicken can be used differently in foreign countries. For example, you can make chicken enchiladas, which is Mexican, or chicken parmesan, which is Italian. The information provided in this book, such as which foods must be cooked and which could be eaten raw, is accurate according to different health websites I used to fact-check the book. Since this book is nonfiction, its accuracy and organization are the most important factors. This book has these characteristics while also being a beneficial multicultural food text. ( )
