This might have seemed like a children's book because, believe it or not, IT IS! I loved this series as a second and third grader. The books taught me about different cultures and made me aware of my world. Now I am looking to buy the complete series for my own children! It's not hard to know what you're buying.

A good simple, easy to use Vietnamese Cookbook
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
I liked this cookbook and can recommend it to someone looking for his or her first introduction to Vietnamese cooking. This book is one of a series "easy menu ethnic cookbooks" published by Lerner Publications Company. It introduces Vietnamese cooking and features some well-known Vietnamese recipes such as spring rolls, Vietnamese fried rice, and my favorite, Bun bo sao (Vietnamese noodle bowl with beef). In addition, the cookbook includes information on the land, history, and holidays of the country. I have a copy of Nicole Routhier's Foods of Vietnam, which also covers some of the same dishes; however, Ms. Routhier's cookbook is more suited to the cook that has quite a bit of time available to prepare her recipes. Cooking the Vietnamese Way is more suited to the everyday cook.
