Four new 'Superchef' titles by Matthew Locricchio outline the cooking of different countries for kids in grades 4-7, introducing each with a discussion of regional food history and differences within the country, then proceeding to kid-oriented recipes for appetizers, main courses, desserts and more. Each bright book packs in photos by Jack McConnell, providing bright examples of completed dishes and local ingredients. New to the series are Greece (076-141729X), Brazil (076141732X), Thailand (0761417311) and India (0761417-303). The series makes for an excellent introduction to foods of different cultures for an age range which normally wouldn't receive such specific detail or age appropriate recipes. School and community librarians are encouraged to send for the free Benchmark catalogs for a complete listing of their non-fiction "books in series" titles for young readers.
