Food. Glorious food. I want to teach kids all about food in different cultures and so....I did this book in storytime. Surprisingly, the kids responded to it more than I anticipated!

Many different countries and regions of the world are represented. There is India, Australia, England, Israel, and of course the USA. It was informative, even for me, to see what they eat. What would I be brave to try?

(The kiddos voted for The Netherlands and chocolate sprinkles on buttered bread ;)
