From School Library Journal
Grade 5-8-Three attractive titles in an extensively revised series. In each volume, the front matter comprises close to half the book. Geography, history, holidays and festivals, typical ingredients, and sample menus are all covered. Safety tips are also included (with no mention of adult supervision), as are tips for healthful cooking. Each book presents about 20 recipes, mostly focusing on lunch, dinner, and holiday foods. A number of recipes are vegetarian, and several seem to be low in fat (although nutrition information is not included). Skills needed cover a fairly large range, from easy to difficult, such as working with phyllo dough (Greek) or making yeast bread (Norwegian). The narrative pieces are smoothly written and offer some interesting tidbits. The authors are either natives or have some family connection to the country under discussion. The pages are a warm buff color, and the design allows plenty of space on the page for the text and the nicely reproduced color photos. All in all, these are good resources for reports and for older kids who want to add something new to their cooking for family or friends.

Reader Reviews
I saw this book randomly in the children's book section of my local bookstore and it caught my eye. Being Norwegian, pretty much everything with "Norway!" or the like catches my eye. I started browsing through the book, and it's beautifully designed! There are a few different sections on traditional Norwegian families and how they do their cooking, some utensils you may want to invest in while using Norwegian recipes, and commonly used ingredients - such as cardamom and white pepper. All in all, very informative! It also has beautiful, color images of almost all of the recipes in the book. So, while the recipes are very useful and tasty, the books itself is nice as a decorative piece in my kitchen! Great book to give to a Norwegian friend or someone who's feeling a little adventurous in their cooking.
