Introduce young readers to a variety of countries and cultures through an exploration of food.

Discover fascinating facts about the food on your plate and tasty dishes from all around the world in this educational reader to help children aged 7-9 learn about countries and cultures.

Children can explore the significance of food to different cultures and the variety of ways in which food is prepared and shared. Then learn how diet can vary according to personal choice, culture, and medical needs, and how food can be broken down into groups to help us maintain a healthy, balanced diet.

The educational series can help children learn about the world, with:

  • Links to key social studies and geography curriculum objectives.
  • Content that allows children to learn about a variety of countries, cultures, and celebrations through food and its significance to each country and culture.
  • Recipes featured that are simple and easy to follow for young readers to try out.


Food Around the World follows the journey of food from farm to table, learning how seasons can affect what produce is available. Children can learn how food is packaged, and how to recycle packaging and reduce food waste. Plus, fun food facts show how food can be grown to extremes!
