      Grades 4-6 Hooking readers with punny titles, The Dish on the Dish series (8 titles) spotlights popular foods via clear, direct writing and a smorgasbord of mouth-watering photos. The main text covers a food's history, its varied forms in different countries, and its continuing evolution. A double-page spread typically includes a full-page illustration on one side, while the facing page carries a paragraph or two of information and the occasional sidebar presenting pertinent history or factoids. The illustrations are usually color photographs showcasing foods, but some titles incorporate black-and-white, archival photos, giving added historical context. From ancient Mesoamerican agriculture and mythology to the rise of Taco Bell, A Story to Taco Bout offers a variety of facts about this traditional Mexican food and discusses its increasing global popularity. A recipe rounds out each volume in this enticing series.
