Find out what children eat all around the world in this beautifully
illustrated book, written by bestselling poet and author Laura
Mucha, alongside acclaimed cookbook author Ed Smith. From pasta to
passionfruit, baguettes to biryani, ramen to rambutan, there are so
many different dishes and delicacies all around the world. In this
fascinating book, young children can learn all about what people in
other countries eat for breakfast, lunch and dinner, as well as
where our food comes from, and the stories, cultures and traditions
behind what we eat. A unique, warm-hearted book that will teach
children understanding, empathy and respect of differing
experiences, cultures and tradition. With engaging, colourful
artwork on every page by award-winning illustrator Harriet Lynas.
Culinary delights abound, romance lingers in the air, and plans go
terribly, wonderfully astray in this gender-bent take on My Fair
Lady from Jennieke Cohen, author of Dangerous Alliance-perfect for
fans of Bridgerton or A Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue. It's
1830s England, and Culinarians-doyens who consult with society's
elite to create gorgeous food and confections-are the creme de la
creme of high society. Helena Higgins, top of her class at the
Royal Academy, has a sharp demeanor and an even sharper palate-and
knows stardom awaits her if she can produce greatness in her final
year. Penelope Pickering is going to prove the value of
non-European cuisine to all of England. Her contemporaries may
scorn her Filipina heritage and her dishes, but with her flawless
social graces and culinary talents, Penelope is set to prove them
wrong. Elijah Little has nothing to his name but a truly excellent
instinct for flavors. London merchants won't allow a Jewish boy to
own a shop, so he hawks his pasties for a shilling a piece to
passersby-but he knows with training he can break into the highest
echelon of society. When Penelope and Helena meet Elijah, a golden
opportunity arises: to pull off a project never seen before, and
turn Elijah from a street vendor to a gentleman chef. But Elijah's
transformation will have a greater impact on this trio than they
originally realize-and mayhem, unseemly faux pas, and a little
romance will all be a part of the delicious recipe.
First paperback edition in this topical non-fiction collection
about sustainability, now expanded to include new material. A child
follows a day in the life of Milly the cow, as she munches grass
with her friends, drinks gallons of water, makes cow pats in the
field, and visits the milking parlour with her farmer. Milly's milk
is made into butter, cheese and yoghurt. This series encourages
children to be environmentally aware by understanding where their
food comes from. Each book is full of information that has been
fact checked, yet presented in a simple and stylish way to spark
the interest of both young children and adults. There is a simple
quiz and fun facts at the end to explain more about dairy farming
and produce, and this new edition includes a gallery of cow breeds,
and a simple recipe using milk
As in his previous books, Flower Power and Veggie Power, Hajek's
whimsical, imaginative paintings-inspired by a variety of artistic
traditions-situate each fruit in a fascinating cultural context.
Each "portrait" features delightful pictorial clues about how the
fruits are grown and consumed. Opposite the illustrations, Annette
Roeder's engaging texts offer illuminating and often surprising
facts from throughout history and contemporary life. As
mouthwatering as a summer peach, and as surprising as a
pomegranate's seeds, this book serves up page after page of
delicious, nutritious, but most of all fun portions of fruity
knowledge from all over the world.
