Like an Usborne book for adults!
Derived From Web , Sep 1, 2021
This book was delightful to read and to look at! It was like some of my favorite type books for children with illustrations and short explanations about all things food-related. There are sections with information about food types, dishes, the history of cooking and even recipes! Reminds me that children of Usborne or DK books enjoy a lot. My teens also enjoyed it!

Beautiful
Derived From Web , Jul 8, 2021
Daughter borrowed one from this collection from the library and fell in love, so we ordered all 4. Simple but beautiful illustrations are included. Note also that there are some areas written in cursive and could frustrate any youngins who never learned it. Mine has, but the font is a little sloppy here and there, but she was sble to figure them out or ask for clarification of she couldn t. Even recommended this collection to a few friends.

Arrived severely damaged

The book was described as used '' with good wear and tear, but in good condition. I received it today and the entire front corner of the book is completely damaged. Misleading and disappointing descriptions. Beware the buyer.

I love the illustrations in this book
Derived From Web , Mar 26, 2018
Just a note, my students have a hard time reading this book because it is written in cursive. They also learn reading cursive, but is not the easiest to learn. I personally think that the cursive adds to the charm.

Breathtaking & Enjoyable Work of Art
Derived From Web , Oct 7, 2017
This book and Julia Rothman's other paintings in the Anatomy series are only breathtaking works of art. I bought for my children, but I love all books as much, if not more than they do. Stunning illustration with insightful and informative tid-bits on a vast array of subjects. To be missed not!
