This is a wonderful, fun cookbook for kids. I love celebrating diversity, and this book is going to be a wonderful resource to do just that. In the classroom and at home, these recipes are delicious, easy and fun!
My kiddos loved cooking them. The pictures were colorful, and clear.

Tasty recipes from around the world. They are not too hard where you can’t find the ingredients or have to wait for a delivery. The recipes are simple and I liked to help my kids out while making a few. It was both fun and educational.

Love this title. It is informative, simple, and visually pleasing. I definitely consider sharing this with others!

This is a lovely addition to Deanna Cook's work. My students love her other cookbooks and they are going to love this one too! Like her other books, there are two page spreads for each recipe, with an easy to follow ingredient list and very specific directions on what to do on each step. This book stands out because each recipe that's featured has a child from a highlighted country and recipe that reflects the cultural history of that country. The recipes are child friendly and easy to make. I think this one is going to be a big hit in our library.

I love that this book features global flavors with recipes geared toward youth. The book has a variety of recipes with simple instructions that can be made with minimal adult assistance. It is a great way to get children involved in cooking and to encourage them to try new foods. The pictures help bring the book to life. I love seeing such a wide variety of recipes.

This is a terrific cookbook for kids. Recipes aren't too difficult, though some do need parental guidance. I found quite a few recipes I want to try myself (I am an adult, tho' not a great cook...). I love Atakilt wat with injera at a local Ethiopean restaurant. Now I can make my own (but not the injera.). I also love empanadas and they are in this book, so I will be trying them! Caprese salad and Anto-pasti platter also look yummy! The Tabbouleh looks interesting and I enjoy eating it, so that, too is a go to try and make (served with pita chips I can get locally!) There are way more recipes in here; enough to taste test foods from around the world. Good book!

I wasn't able to download this book to my Kindle, but was able to find a copy on my local library's shelf so I could enjoy and review this recipe book.

This is a wonderful cookbook for young chefs! Abundant photos show step by step directions. The book begins with explanations of cooking terms and safety. The recipes are truly from all around the globe and sound delicious, but are simple enough that young chefs be able to succeed at the recipe with just a little help from an adult. I am certainly going to purchase this book for my elementary school library (grades 3-5).

My two daughters like to cook ,a lot.
This great book gave us some really cool new ideas and the recipies are easy enough even for my 6 year old daughters.

We had a lot of Fun.

Thanks for giving us the chance to read this book.

I received an ARC of this from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.

This was a fantastic cook book for children. It features easy recipes from all over the world and step by step visual instructions on how to make the dishes. It explains different types of food which are native to places that might seem foreign to North Americans, for example, different fruits and what not.
This had great, delicious recipes and I like to use it myself.

Definitely a great book to use to introduce your children or anyone to cooking.

In my opinion, the best way to discover new cultures is through food. Because food is the best. If you want to get a kid interested in the rest of the world, show them all the delicious foods the rest of the world has! Though this is a recipe book for kids, a lot of the recipes do not seem like things kids should be making by themselves. Like, at all. No way am I going to let a kid dice onions with a sharp knife all by themselves. Even I don't fully trust myself to dice anything with a sharp knife (and I've got the scars to prove it). But the recipes all sound delicious, so if you want to get your kids into world cuisine, and cooking, then this is the book for you.

Your tastebuds can travel the world from your own kitchen with these international recipes. Whether a cooking novice or expert, these new foods are worth a try.
I love how well Cook appeals to her audience of kids. The pictures throughout the book are of children making these recipes from their families’ countries, and Cook gives lots of simple directions with extra mentions of how to follow those directions safely. Readers learn about cooking and baking, different cultures, and non-native fruits and vegetables. This book has the potential to expand the horizons of its readers -- and expand their palates.
Reviewer: Carolina Herdegen

Cooking Class Global Feast! is a cookbook that allows children to make and try recipes from around the world. The book begins with an introduction that explains why children should try food from around the world and continues with a list of recipes featured, which is broken down by location and difficulty of the recipe. The book continues with a series of nine lessons that cover topics such as kitchen safety, tools, ingredients, and cooking terms. In my opinion, this is an important feature that all children's cookbooks should include. The "how-to" sections include step-by-step instructions on what children should do to accomplish the task along with pictures of a child actually completing the task. The terms are accompanied by a brief definition and a picture related to that term. I believe that the combination of print and photographs is great because it accommodates children with different learning styles.

The recipes are separated into breakfast, drinks and snacks, lunch, dinner, and dessert. I appreciate that countries all around the world are included in each category. Overall, it seems that most kids will be able to find something in each category that they like. The recipes themselves include a photograph of the finished product, a description, an ingredient list, and step-by-step instructions, which are accompanied by photographs of each step. Again, I think that the step-by-step description and photographs are a great addition to this book. The variety of recipes is pretty good, however I was a bit disappointed by the foods that represented some countries (such as toasted cashews for Costa Rica). However, I still recommend this cookbook to those interested in global gourmet because many of the recipes are more in-depth.

I believe that this cookbook is a great selection for children that are interested in learning about global gourmet, or even cooking in general. I love the fact that the book begins with a section about general kitchen safety, terms, tools, and ingredients. The fact that the instructions include photographs is a major bonus.

I received a copy of this book for free from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This is a charming cookbook that should appeal to elementary and middle grade students. The recipes include lots of photographs of kids actually doing the cooking, and the dishes look yummy. Everything seems to be explained really well, making this a great choice for kids who are interested in trying something new but don't have great confidence in the kitchen yet. .I love the sidebars that include a little background about the kids featured in the photos, and I love the multicultural nature of this book. There appears to be a good range of s recipes in here, from super easy to challenging. At first glance, it does appear to be rather bread and carb heavy, but I probably should have expected that for a kids' cookbook!

I really enjoyed going through this cookbook with my 3 girls. It gave us something to do together without screens win win.

I think that cookbooks for kids are fantastic! As an experienced cook and cookbook enthusiast, I enjoyed the chance to take a sneak peek at “Cooking Class Global Feast!” The contents are listed in multiple ways: continent, meal, and include a difficulty rating that is clearly explained. Photos are colorful and generally include labels and/or descriptions. Cooking terms are well defined and include reference photos. Photos include a variety of children of different ethnicities and genders. Recipes are accompanied by step by step photos and information insets. Real kids are featured and their information is included in side bars. I look forward to seeing the final edition and utilizing the recipes with kids. Thank you Net Galley for providing the eARC copy, all opinions are my own.

A very well-done cookbook for the young chef. A lot of thought went into the book to make it user friendly. Most of the recipes I would say are for 2nd grade and up to middle school. Great background information of each recipe with ties to each culture/area/country. The book is organized in a helpful manner. I love the photos representing multicultural children. Other than home, classroom, and library use it would make a welcome gift for the young cooking enthusiast.

Amazing! Love this book! Perfect for little cooks new and expirenced, i especially love how it shows the kids cooking their own recipes! Has easy to follow and fully explained directions so its great for kids of all ages!

Bright pictures of multicultural children cooking delicious-looking recipes! I will definitely purchase this for my elementary school library (as long as it is not spiral-bound). My only criticism is that the children in the photographs sometimes look a bit young to be following the given recipes, which could be a turn-off for older children who might be the more appropriate audience.

Celebrate the world’s diverse cultures through food. This book is wonderful because it assumes basic skills need instruction. It covers preparing breakfasts, drinks, snacks, dinners, and desserts from around the world. Some recipes include Irish Soda Bread, ANZAC biscuits, ramen noodle soup, and mango lassi. All recipes are either ones that kids will like or that will help them to explore their palette. Each has step-by-step instruction with photos, background about the dish and traditions. The instructions also address safety. Although some of the recipes will need some parental help, this cookbook is a great way to introduce kids to new foods and cultures while fostering a love for cooking. A great opportunity for bonding, parents and children will enjoy devouring this cookbook together.

Great recipes to introduce kids (adults too) to some international flavors and favorite recipes. Easy to find ingredients make the recipes even more appealing. Wonderfully photographed and well explained. I really appreciate that the cultures of different countries are embraced for my young chefs to learn about.
