Review Quotes: Recipes from around the world can be found in this series. Each title starts with a table of contents and is followed by a short chapter about materials needed to make the recipes, kitchen tips, and a standard vs. metric measurement chart. There are about 13 recipes within each title, and each includes an itemized ingredient list, numbered instructions, and a full-color photo of the finished product. Recipes also include information about how or why a food is made in its original culture: "People in Somalia drink mango milkshakes during hot summers and the fasting month of Ramadan" (Treats Across Cultures). A small text bubble can be found with each recipe, adding an interesting fact about the culture or language associated with the recipe. "Fiji has three official languages: English, Fijian, and Fiji Hindi" (Lunch Across Cultures). The final page includes resources for readers to find more information. VERDICT A short series with recipes for dishes from around the world. Good projects for middle schoolers, or younger children with support.--Hilary Tufo, Columbus Metro Library, OH "School Library Journal"
