Customer Reviews

Too Amercian in content2
I found this book was too American in content to use easily, although it does contain some good ideas. Many of the activities involve using American food brands and other items which are not internationally available and, as there are no colour pictures, I didn't know what to substitute. It also suggests a lot of things to make for holiday seasons (eg Thanksgiving) which are not relevent for a UK market. Much better suited to a North American readership.
