The first part of this book is devoted to quesiton children wonder about or ask their parents: what are the four main tastes? Why do some people like spicy food? Did our ancestors really eat better? Why aren't there strawberries in winter? Why are farmers' markets better for fruit? And many more questions sure to interest young and old alike.
The second part details various food groups and why it is good for our health to eat from all of them... in moderation. Each two-page spread features an original chef's recipe that is simple for children and parents alike.
