Cooking and Food

Do you know any budding gourmet chefs or kids who are curious about food traditions from around the world? We've gathered up a great collection of books, activities, apps, and websites for learning all about cooking and food.

Try pairing fiction with nonfiction books and exploring different genres [6] (like poetry and biographies) and formats (like graphic novels and audio books). You'll be creating your own "text sets" — collections of texts focused on a specific topic, such as cooking and food. Reading widely in this way helps children build background knowledge [7], vocabulary [8], and comprehension skills.
