a seriously funny book about food * National Geographic Kids *
An original, bizarre cookery book * Carousel *
A different sort of cookery book. Quirky, colourful, informative, not for the faint hearted. I challenge one's ideas of what may be edible by proving that one shouldn't judge the taste of a food by only using one's eyes. . . the reader is given unusual ideas of things to make using ordinary ingredients . . . there are so many interesting things to enjoy reading about, experiments to do, or simply just enjoy eating new things with friends * Carousel *
