ARLETTE N. BRAMAN, a former teacher and developer of internationalthematic units for students, has written articles for suchmagazines as The Friend, Pen & Ink, and ManicMoms. She is also the author of Kids Around the WorldCreate!
Grade 4-6-A collection of recipes for beverages, grains, soups and starters, main courses, and sweets from 22 countries. Each one has been tested by fourth-grade students and is clearly written. Readers are directed to find the few special ingredients required at specialty shops or on Web sites. Unfortunately, they must wade through a morass of fragmentary information to find these recipes. For example, on the four pages devoted to black bean soup, there is one sentence about its history, two about a man in ancient Rome who made soup, two paragraphs about bean soups in three different countries (with their names and pronunciations), a recipe for black bean soup from Cuba, two sentences about various beans of the world, and four describing chili con carne, sans recipe. Black-and-white line drawings and poorly rendered photos appear throughout. Deanna Cook's The Kids' Multicultural Cookbook (Williamson, 1995) is more inviting. For a more complete treatment of a single country, try the wonderful "Easy Menu Ethnic Cookbooks" series (Lerner).
