Tasty: A History of Yummy Experiments by Victoria Grace Elliott - OPTIONAL

Tasty: A History of Yummy Experiments by Victoria Grace Elliott
, 134 pages. GRAPHIC NOVEL, NON-FICTION RH Graphic (Random House), 2023. $22 

Language: G (0 swears) Mature Content: G Violence: G 

BUYING ADVISORY: EL, MS - OPTIONAL 

AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE 

A collection of upbeat food sprites takes the reader on a tour of how various foods came to be from pizza to pickles. 

At first glance, this book looks like a fictional middle-grade graphic novel but sports a fairly high lexile as it goes through food facts from throughout the world. This is a fun way to learn facts, though I would have liked a table of contents. Some simple recipes go with the different sections. Food aficionados may enjoy this but the artwork seems geared to elementary-age girls.
